Alt-lite commentators and right-wing media outfits downplaying the severity of identified variants of concern is just more fear uncertainty and doubt from Conservative manipulators.
“Seyed Ali Taghva, editor-in-chief and co-founder of The Post Millennial, said the site is unabashedly a "centre-right news organization, the same way the @TorontoStar is a liberal news organization."”

In Canada, liberals study reality to learn about reality so they can respond to reality. Conservatives, instead, attempt to shape reality into a form that they desire.
Understand that this is what the referendum was about: changing what is true into what they want to be true.
Why is Kenney alway lying?
He isn’t. He’s telling the “truth” that he wants to become factual.
In the imagination of Conservatives, the world people like Kenney project is real—or at least what they believe *should* be true, if the lies are repeated enough to be believed.
Conservatives will twist themselves into knots to defend the lie. They may get upset with people who reject their projected reality.
This can be clearly seen as the bending of words. Pay attention to which words need to be changed to make their lie true.

I didn’t think he was going to stop.
So I decided to change my strategy...

I did not want that.
As soon as he relaxed,
I got up,
and got out of there.”

Without knowing exactly who is buying homes, we can’t be certain…
“A pair of [2020] reports say Canada is undergoing a "K-shaped recovery," with working-class Canadians going deeper into debt while those at the top prosper.”
A few months ago I went to the ceremony to honour #215children that were found at a residential school site. Since then thousands more have been discovered.
Here is a thread of videos from that day that I had not shared previously. #OrangeShirtDay
Singing from the drum circle.
A moment of silence.
Many in the crowd were wearing orange shirts that day.
