Irrelevant to this discussion. Since vaccinated people catch and spread covid19, even in a setting where 100% of people are vaccinated, it should still spread. The vaccine isn't 100% effective and its effectiveness declines with time. My guess that non-outbreak has a lot more to do with natural immunity than it does vaccinations.
It's not irrelevant. If 80% of the population in Ontario are vaccinated and if the vaccine doesn't prevent infections (which is your claim), then 80% of new cases should be vaccinated. But what we see is that the 20% which are unvaccinated are causing 65 to 70% of the new cases.
Yeah, actually it's completely irrelevant to this specific topic of a mass mostly-outdoors event not resulting in an outbreak despite fear-mongering predictions.
If that's the case, the unvaccinated cases of Covid wouldn't be twice as high as the vaccinated in Ontario which has a vaccination rate of almost 80%.

You should have told them that all of them are vaccinated, since it's a requirement to attend McMaster. That would have stopped their fear mongering.
