In what screwed up universe is 67% positivity rate for COVid a good job?

In the herd immunity universe.

With 2/3 people testing positive for COVid, that would be the only situation that a good job was done.
This governor deserves to go to prison for life. Not pat herself on the back for allowing the virus to spread unchecked. So do the CEO’s of multinational corporations, BOD’s and other oligarchs who pressured her to keep the economy open.
This policy is a disgusting and repugnant display of paleolibertarian policy, beliefs and values.

There are no words to describe how depraved this is. And not a hint of remorse.

Have people lost their minds? This is not normal!!!!
In a state with fewer than 1M people, over 66,000 have tested positive. And 644 people have died. In 10 months.

And herd immunity is a long ways off. They need about 60% to reach herd immunity. Currently it’s about 7%.

And they are only reporting 1% mortality rate.
Remember this is the state that had a huge Biker Rally. And refused to close down the state fair. No mask ordinances.

Listen to the pride in that woman’s voice.

When healthcare collapses, will people realize what they’ve allowed the governor to do?

I don’t think so.

What do we call a supposed leader that hides from controversy that he caused himself?
A weakling & a coward!
Cowardly Kenney.

Bullies are predictable. When you stand up to a bully, they run and hide.

Kenney will try to reestablish his dominance. He will try to impose targeted strategies. But he will not impose a lockdown, yet.

He will eventually.

Albertans direly need help getting mainstream media attention to this story.

Not only did Minister Luan reveal the official plan is to do NOTHING to address COVid, so did Minister Shandro at another Grande Prairie AGM this weekend.
Published by South Peace News, reporter Susan Thompson records Minister Shandro pandering to what appears to be Q’Anon conspiracy theories. Though she didn’t label it as such.

Shandro revealed the Alberta COVid strategy is being guided by Dr. Hodkinson. A discredited physician. ImageImageImage
The Canadian College of Physicians and Surgeons recently released a public statement distancing the organization from Dr. Hodkinson’s opinion about COVid danger and the use of masks.

Now it seems the doctor has allegedly recommended testing be stopped, unless symptomatic.

The diabolical plan revealed by MLA Luan is in character with paleolibertarian ideology.

That is who is at the helm in Alberta.

Radical extremist far right religious zealots who are dedicated to their adherence to ideological policy choices.
In a purely cost benefit analysis, it’s cheaper to allow the population to live with COVid than it is to mitigate the transmission of the disease.

When loss is expected, the least expensive loss is preferred.
How much has been spent on COVid strategies in Alberta compared to other Canadian provinces?

On a balance sheet, Alberta has “wasted” less capital than other provinces. And preserved the viability of more corporations.

As Mr. Luan back peddles furiously from his diabolical statements made on Friday that seem very consistent with official Alberta UCP policy, I found Austrian economics opinions that spell out the UCP’s current stance on COVid mitigation (i.e. Procrastinating until crisis).
Here is a 2012 recorded response of the question: “Does government regulation crowd out private responsibility?”

Kenney & many UCP ministers have repeatedly identified personal responsibility.

The far right adamantly supports liberty, not regulation.

Mises Institute is where UCP members and supporters go to find & validate their ideology.

This speech is laden with theocratic overtones & the belief that it’s better to let people decide themselves, where they can make a personal risk assessment. Therefore no mandates needed.

The high level of COVid gaslighting, disinformation and propaganda emanating from many conservatives is repugnant and horrifying.

Here we have an MP promoting disinformation, and completely dehumanizing those with co-morbidities.
According to MP Harder, you are irrelevant and just taking up valuable hospital space if you are not young, beautiful, completely healthy and resilient to COVid infection.

Reminds me of a Toni Collette movie clip from “Muriel’s Wedding.”

The women aghast at being labeled two-faced malignant people by their acquaintance in a wheel chair are incredulous that someone who isn’t perfect criticizes their hypocrisy, double standards and excessive egotism.

It’s one of Collette’s best screen performances.

This account is promoting disaster capitalism.

People make huge profits from medical devices, equipment and drugs. Guaranteed many have bought shares in the corporations that stand to benefit from the drug approvals regarding COVid. Whether that’s testing or a vaccine.
Incredible pressure has sped up the approval process and cut corners in regulation that assures safety and health.

But shareholders still get to cash in on the sales of the speedily approved healthcare products.

That’s what this account is promoting.
Whomever this account is (Graeme Moffat) has sold their education and integrity to make a fast buck.

Jason Kenney has promoted these values and policy as well. In regards to rapid testing. For the same reason. To assist the owners to make quick profits.
