A new Ontario rule effective Sept. 23 that requires businesses to verify the vaccination status of patrons each visit is creating uncertainty, the Toronto Star reports.

However, IAPP Canada Managing Director and nNovation Partner Kris Klein, CIPP/C, CIPM, FIP, said if businesses retain only a "check mark" instead of actual vaccination certificates, they will likely be compliant.
