There are several businesses in Inglewood that are openly supporting this bogus conspiracy movement and it has been quite disappointing. Glad I haven't gone to this place, and I never will. #yyc
Their Instagram is not down anymore, but here's a sampling of comments on a recent post. Image
As Max points out here, it was led by mayoral hopeful Kevin J. Johnston. The same man recently arrested in Dawson Creek for an anti-mask stunt, and was previously ordered to pay $2.5 million for Islamophobic comments in Ontario. ImageImage
Gotta love adding "don't drink and drive" to a post about an event that ignores public health policies.

The Calgary and Edmonton medical staff associations are currently holding a briefing about the third wave of COVID-19. Going to tweet any interesting details in this thread. #yyc #yeg #ableg Image
They say the numbers look grim, as modeling data shows that in a week from now, the number of COVID variant cases per day will double. They say this means hospitals and ICUs could become overwhelmed before the end of April.
President of the Calgary Medical Staff Society, Dr. Scott Beach, says he hopes recommended actions being proposed here can help finally bend the curve downward.

After the province's ambulance dispatch consolidation plan took place last month, mayors of Calgary, Red Deer, Lethbridge and Wood Buffalo are sharing concerns. #ableg
This morning, during a council meeting, Calgary's 911 director said they experienced issues on the first day of the switch in the city that prevented someone from receiving timely medical assistance. 660citynews.com/2021/02/01/maj…
Red Deer Mayor Tara Veer says they have all been seeing issues since the switch. She is calling for a third-party inquiry to investigate these problems.

I am dialed in and waiting for the start of today's COVID-19 press conference, which may or may not include Premier Kenney and an announcement about loosened restrictions. Still no notification from the government, though. Follow this thread for details and listen @660NEWS #ableg Image
We are now ten minutes behind schedule. For reference, when it is only Dr. Hinshaw at the press conference it usually starts at 3:30 on the dot.
It has started apparently but the phone has not opened up. This is extremely frustrating.

I've stayed off Twitter for 90% of my vacation away from work, and that has done leagues for my mental health. Now to return and see what is happening with the UCP's irresponsible travel plans, I'm trying to figure out why I'm not more mad. It must be that I'm exhausted. 1/
I can't even say I'm disappointed. This is totally par for the course. Since 2019, our government has been gaslighting critics, trying to intimidate journalists (including myself), and trying to say they know better than everyone else. 2/
We've also seen this throughout the response to the pandemic. Premier Kenney, in the early days, was admittedly doing the right things. His messaging was strong and it genuinely seemed like he cared for Albertans' well-being in making difficult decisions. 3/

I'm at the scene in Falconridge where a Calgary police officer was killed during a traffic stop late last night. Arrived as they were towing away his squad car. A single white rose lies on a snowbank in memory of Sgt. Andrew Harnett. #yyc Image
The incident happened just outside a gas station off Falconridge Drive. Can see a mark on a curb where the offender's vehicle appeared to jump the curb. There's also a discarded paramedic's glove on the ground where it happened. ImageImageImage
CPS are holding a press conference in about 15 minutes. We will have it live on @660NEWS and online at 660citynews.com.

Welcome back folks! This has started again and we will hear a ruling from the justice.
I had to dial in this time over the phone, I think they just cut out the video stream due to all the issues we saw this morning.
Justice started by going through what the restrictions are. Explaining what the applicants were seeking as well here.
