What will happen if children fall behind? Governments will need to invest in getting caught up.
What will happen if we don’t deal with Covid? People will die.
So is academic achievement our greatest concern right now?
And should the average citizen have decision making power to set policy when they are primarily concerned about their own needs and wants and not the overall health of the public and they don’t have access to reports on the current severity of covid?
Greens are pushing for direct democracy. Where individuals have as much sway as elected officials. Where pandering to individual demands replaces decision making beneficial to the majority.
Elizabeth May needs to back off the left libertarian direct democracy push.
People are dying and she wants to advocate for direct democracy. The same idiocy that has created anti maskers and religious zealots who refuse to abide by covid measures.
Sit down Liz! You’ve done enough damage to Canada. As have BC Liberals (actually Social Credit and cons).

We need to admit to ourselves and each other what the last 4 years have been preparing the public for: Indoctrination to accept a fascist coup.
There is no other way to interpret the information presented in the embedded article.
It’s shocking. That Trump made the effort to create the film he showed at his January 6 rally immediately prior to the Capitol riot and insurrection reveals his intent.
One thing almost all agree, Trump knows how to manipulate through media. That film is no accident.
Hope is a double edged sword. We need hope tempered with reality. False hope is just unrealized despair.
Personally I find reality, as difficult as it can be sometimes, is a better gauge of hope. When I see people are engaged and aware of facts, I have hope.
When I see people organizing to remove destructive governments, that brings me hope.
I prefer to search for and inspire available actions. I prefer to be an agent of change, not a helpless victim. Pleading for forgiveness is infinitely easier than asking for permission.
Waiting for deliverance or a saviour is a victim’s stance. Yet so many just continue to obey an illegitimate power and surrender their own power.
I’m not very good at surrender or obedience to oppressive expectations.
Honour and integrity are only valuable to survivors.
Hey all! I’m so excited. Just found out that Chrissy Stroop is going to be on @ryanjespersen tomorrow!
I’m so excited to hear her voice and listen to her reveal the evangelical Christian agenda. I’ve followed her for a while now and she really knows her stuff.
Here he communicates why the vaccination of as many people as possible as quickly is possible is required.
This completely debunks the conservatives rationale that lives<or=livelihoods debate. Entirely!
I’ll explain in more detail.
We now have two deadlier and more contagious variants of Covid circulating across the globe. The vaccines developed are less than 95% effective. It’s more like 50%, maybe less.
Some believe it’s hardly worth the effort to achieve 50% efficacy.
This is untrue. Viruses mutate quickly and effectively when transmitted from person to person. Becoming infected allows the virus to mutate. Eliminate transmission or widespread infection, and the virus’s ability to mutate into deadlier forms is eliminated.
What’s horrifying is that GOP Senators who are implicated, will be voting whether to convict Trump or acquit.
Trump has parted ways with his attorneys. Meaning the fix is already arranged.
What that means for the Biden administration and American democracy is yet unknown.
Meanwhile, 50M supportive MAGA Americans are in a mass fugue state induced by extreme disinformation.
No longer tethered to reality, this group of citizens is completely engrossed in conspiracy theories and extremist religious fervour, blinding them to reality.
@Kaleido45374749 As for this tidbit. The twinning of the highway is a major infrastructure investment. It isn’t to improve access to camping sites. It’s probably part of China’s BRI. The Belt and Road Initiative.
@Kaleido45374749 A more appropriate provincial choice would have been to twin the highway to Ft Mac. There have been a number of deaths on the highway and it’s been sites as high priority for several years.
But this road in central Alberta won out.
Why?
@Kaleido45374749 Because the corridor to Rocky Mountain House is where China wants to go and provides access to the natural resources China wants. Along with a few other foreign buyers.
What’s under those mountains? A huge natural gas reserve. Coal in the mountains and pristine timber.
