1. @jkenney is fucking little bastard weasel.

On @PnPCBC he was asked directly about his reckless and dangerous decision to not wait for Health Canada vetting of tests, test vaccines, and medication before unleashing them on Albertans.

2. His reply: "Is Dr Tam suggesting that the European Union's regulator of medications or the FDA would approve things that are dangerous for public use?"

3. "The same Dr Tam who was telling us that we shouldn't close our borders to countries with high levels of infection and who in January was repeating talking points out of the PRC about no evidence of human-to-human transmission?"

4. Let's drive-by suggest Dr Tam is a mouthpiece of the PRC, because why not live down to redneck expectations of Alberta Conservative politicians and throw on a touch of racism and sinophobia... You know, for shits and giggles.

5. He goes on: "So we'll look at all the body of evidence that's out there when it comes to these things and if we see a credible regulator of a pure jurisdiction like for example the European Union that has approved a test vaccine..."

6. "...or medication, then I think we should be prepared to consider that for use here in Canada. We are not going to feel constrained under our public health act waiting for Ottawa to do what other highly sophisticated jurisdictions..."

7. Because why not undermine confidence in Health Canada as well, since we are torching the house, right?

Then @JKenney is asked if he's saying Dr Tam is incompetent and whether his public health officials have him different
recommendations.

8. Straight-laced, after dragging Dr Tam's name through he mud with an "Is Dr Tam suggesting...?" he claims he wasn't suggesting she's incompetent and doesn't even attempt to answer the question about the advice he received.

9. This guy is doing EVERYTHING he can to get Canadians to mistrust the federal response AND he wants the federal govt to bail out his government for it's own budgetary mess, one that led to a $250M lawsuit from doctors.

10. This from @JKenney coupled with @AndrewScheer's nasty speech in the HoC on Saturday makes it clear that AB/Federal Conservatives are not on #TeamCanada and are only serving themselves.

Utterly depraved and disgusting!

11. And OF COURSE @JKenney is willing to follow the USA's lead and like Trump is somewhat pushing hydroxychloroquine, despite the shartshow that is the USA... but he won't wait for Health Canada and will gleefully malign Dr Tam.

#COVID19 #CdnPoli #ABPoli #COVIDIOT

12. Perhaps this (+ the $250M lawsuit from doctors + @Shandro harassing doctors at home/by phone) is why @JKenney is launching a racist/sinophobic attack against Dr Tam and puffing his chest in Health Canada's direction.
