This is the point Canada has reached by placing trust in radical extremism. Five conservative premiers and one NDP are refusing to protect public health. Every day of indecision and failure to act drives COVid deeper into the population.
Canadians are desperate for the mayhem to be stopped.
And still premiers hesitate to order lockdowns.
This is why physicians MUST make decisions about life and death during a medical emergency, not politicians.
A pandemic has been politicized and turned into an ideological showdown between libertarians and everyone else.
This is why nations create legislation that is only invoked during an emergency.
We are in an emergency. Right now. And it’s going to get much worse.
The positive cases were people exposed 2 weeks ago. The people exposed today will be exponentially higher than the positive tests being reported today.
Changes to the morbidity rate won’t change until 2 weeks after drastic measures are taken.
Every day politicians wait to enforce strict lockdowns, thousands more people are exposed. And in 2 weeks, about 20% of those infected will require medical assistance due to life threatening symptoms.
It’s time for CMOH, the Feds or both to intervene. Liberty be damned. Corporate profits be damned. Rent collectors be damned.
The lives of Canadians come first.
Every left and right libertarian radical extremist crying foul over loss of civil rights and personal liberty can go to hell. My right to life, every Canadian’s right to life, trumps your liberty, every day of the week & twice on Sunday. 🧐

Remember Alberta, Feds warned about this in May & June. And repeated cautionary warnings regularly throughout summer that the second wave would be much worse.
Dr. Tam was personally attacked for cautioning reopening was too soon by Kenney.
Kenney wants Alberta public healthcare to fail. Replacing it with private healthcare will be much easier when all medical personnel and hospital workers are exhausted, sick or emotionally broken.
When the population is still recovering from COVid infection, mental trauma from extended isolation, exhaustion from lack of food or struggling to survive because they’ve been evicted.
All the appearance of choice, but the participation in voting changes nothing. Even in overwhelming popular votes. This is the electoral and political system Russia has used since Putin took power.
That is what is being engineered through gerrymandering, voter suppression, vote tampering and blatant cheating.
A tyranny of the minority.
An autocratic state controlled by theocrats, kleptocrats and oligarchs.
Kenney is a Dominionist Christian. He believes human rights are divinely bestowed by god through the “inerrant” bible. Natural law supersedes secular law. It’s not just international law rejected. He also rejects the Charter of Rights & Freedoms.
The UCP platform included a commitment to repeal human rights legislation in Alberta. And also to make access to the Alberta Human Rights Commission difficult.
Kenney believes and will legislate that human rights are bestowed by god, not man.
Kenney is incapable of altering his ideology. He so fervently believes his own rhetoric about liberty and freedom and god’s will is to let the chosen people decide for themselves as their divinely bestowed rights permit, that he will not intervene to halt COVid.
We can wait. We have example after example of American states collapsing healthcare systems to know what to expect.
This is arrogance, hubris & blind faith in divinely bestowed rights that’s preventing Kenney from acting in the interests of public health vs individual liberty.
That’s why he removed the power of the Chief Medical Officer of Health in April 2020. She unilaterally closed schools and ordered a lockdown in keeping with the rest of the nation. He stripped her of that power very shortly after.
Personal data is the new oil for capitalism. The control of the distribution of resources through personal data aggregation and analysis is the new reality.
Harvesting personal health data is part of that objective. Change laws to make it easier.
@Paulbyjove1@Dave_Khan@jkenney@shandro It is being overlooked. Most focus on individual threat, but this legislation permits the government to harvest data and use it for any purpose they consider “in the best interests” of the public. Consider who UCP sees as the “public.”
Corporations & Dominionist Christians.
@Paulbyjove1@Dave_Khan@jkenney@shandro This legislation permits AB government to transfer individual and aggregated data to Corporate and Faith based entities for analysis, manipulation and influence.
The documentary “People You May Know” revealed that health data (more specifically mental health data) is sought.
