Our camera person did have to leave the grounds after being harrassed for wearing a mask.

NDP health critic David Shepherd says he's glad the UCP heeded their call to expand boosters and to get more rapid tests into Albertans hands.

But says not reversing decision to allow unvaccinated people to gather is "reckless"
Shepherd says the NDP is not calling for hard lock downs, but asks why Alberta is doing less than other provinces.
"Where is that modelling?"

Shepherd says he wants to know why Albertans aren't able to see the provincial COVID modelling, nor the recommendations put forward by Dr. Hinshaw.
