And classic projection. Kenney, in his zeal to moralize addiction, closed safe injection sites that would have had addiction specialists to support addicts.
But it’s PM’s fault. Not the provincial govt who removed the safety net.
Not the fault of the provincial govt that transferred all the addiction recovery funds to religious based treatment centres who proselytize while condemning addicts poor choices, reverting to blaming a personal responsibility failure vs a medical condition for addiction.
Kenney is killing people with vile cruel policy. 900 addicts, over 800 COVid patients.
How many seniors who had medication changes forced by a policy change? How many hospital patients who can’t receive adequate care because of rampant illness spreading in AB?
How many people with comorbidities are suffering mental illness from 9 months of loneliness because Kenney made policy decisions that put their lives in danger? And there is no end in sight.
How many meat packing plant workers, O&G workers and the multitudes of industries who received an exemption from COVid guidelines to save employers money? How many FN communities have lost vulnerable elders because FN with jobs off reserve didn’t wear masks?
How many people have to die? This isn’t normal. This isn’t acceptable.
And it sure as hell isn’t caused by the federal government providing CERB benefits to addicts.
One day soon I hope Albertans will recognize these are CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY. Not poor policy choices.

WTF is O’Toole doing in Quebec? Trudeau is letting down France because the Canadian constitution allows for hate speech to be restricted?
What kind of fricking polarizing nonsense is that? Why is Canada obligated to uphold France’s interpretation of liberty and free speech?
It isn’t! Which is the whole point. How dare O’Toole suggest Canadians compromise the Charter’s freedom of expression to accommodate a French interpretation of free speech. Or rather, Freedom of Expression.
What a nincompoop statement! Pierre Trudeau brought us the Chartwr of Rights and Freedoms and was from Quebec. So how do you make the argument this is anti-Quebec interpretation?
@erinotoole are you actively seeking to divide this nation? Me thinks you are.
Shocking changes are a method of installing far right paleolibertarianism.
If people would take the time to read Nancy Maclean’s book Democracy in Chains, you would be able to recognize a pattern.
Included is the history of the Chilean fascist regime headed by Pinochet. There are two podcast episodes that relate this history quite well. Please listen to them.
If you haven’t got the time to listen to these podcasts then you haven’t got the time to wake the hell up. Gaining knowledge requires commitment and a liberal amount of your time in order to hear/read, comprehend and absorb the information being provided.
Mr. Kenney is suffering from delusion. Completely oblivious, or aware, but doesn’t care.
Is he attempting to put a positive spin on his COVid response (gaslighting Albertans)? Or does he actually believe he has made a significant difference (gaslighting himself)?
Premiers chose to reopen schools, in Alberta packing them like sardines, even after being informed of initial studies in August that demonstrated transmission rates for kids were no different than adult transmission rates.
This is not incompetence. UCP MLA Luan admitted the plan was to take COVid numbers to almost hospital capacity before imposing any public health restrictions.
This is consistent with US exposed emails confirming they wanted children to become infected.
Canada is being harvested like Iraq. The chaos came after the attack and removal of Saddam Hussein. It’s still chaos.
Al Qaida emerged from the chaos of Iraq. Religious extremism.
Who are the biggest backers of Conservative parties? Religious extremists.
It’s the same game plan. We watched it occur in 2003. A few short years after Russia was overtaken by Putin. Several nations have fallen victim since then.
These are all the same people backed by religious extremism. Republicans were never fighting terrorism.
This is what Putin did to Russia. It’s what Yanukovych did to Ukraine. Boris Johnson is doing to UK. Trump did to US. Bush jr did to Iraq. Orban did to Hungary.
It’s a strategy. The more economically desperate people become, the easier the population is to control.
It’s more difficult to protest if you’re focussed on where your next meal is coming from or how you’re going to pay rent.
Remember in May and June how conservatives across Canada wanted CERB to be ceased immediately? Because people weren’t motivated to work.
