Kenney : “The curve in Alberta is much lower than in other parts of the world” #COVIDAB #covid19Canada Image
Kenny says wear a covering over your nose and mouth if you are going into a crowded area.
He says experts project if we had no social distancing or public health orders in place we could experience, in the worst case scenario, as many as 1.6 million infections & 32 thousand deaths in Alberta. Thats 640 deaths per day
Kenney says we are pushing that curve down. We are expanding the capacity at our hospitals. Kenney adds they will spare no expense to prevent he spread while providing the best possible care to those who need it

Monday: RCMP tells me there are NO investigations into the violence that cancelled an anti-racism rally in Red Deer.
Tuesday: after our story goes viral, RCMP launches an investigation.
RCMP said they were not expecting this kind of violence even though there were online threats against protesters made days before. The violence came as no surprise to the racialized community who have been out protesting anti-racism for weeks in central Alberta.
Some background: 2 weeks ago an anti-racism protester was attacked by a truck in Ponoka. The group held a news conference to discuss the hit & run but it was crashed by people with known connections to hate groups. RCMP were there. My story:

I’m in court in this morning where Deng Mabiour, the man accused of killing a family doctor at a medical clinic, is expected to make a court appearance (via video).
google.ca/amp/s/edmonton…
Mabiour makes a court app via video from the remand centre. He’s in a blue jumpsuit. Wearing a mask & handcuffed. He complains about standing up— and takes a sit on the floor. When the judge asked him if he received a copy of the charges against him, he says “I don’t know”.
When asked if he understand the charges he says he “killed his family doctor for a good reason” . He keeps asking for a chance to tell his side why he killed his family doctor. He says he does not want a lawyer.
