Who in #Alberta is Ok with this? "#DanielleSmith..has been especially focused on..vaccines & vaccine mandates(to which she has previously drawn parallels to the Nuremberg trials)..she vowed that if elected, #ab would not enforce any federal vaccine mandates." @calgaryherald
"Nuremberg Code was created in 1947 in Nuremberg, Germany, following the trial of a group of Nazi doctors accused of conducting inhumane and often deadly experiments on prisoners of concentration camps without their consent." FullFact.Org
"At the conclusion of what’s also referred to as ‘The Doctors Trial’, 16 people were found guilty. The Nuremberg Code was developed in response to the horrors of this experimentation, with the aim of protecting human subjects in medical research."
"The Code, and particularly its emphasis on informed consent, has had a profound impact on international human rights law and medical ethics." fullfact.org/health/nurembe…
For a possible #ab Premier to be comparing what we are doing in Canada to what #NAZI doctors were doing to Concentration Camp inmates, is "Morally Grotesque" I'm borrowing words used by Dr Julian Sheather ethical adviser to British Medical Association & Doctors without Borders.
This is Rob Breakenridge's @CalgaryHerald column on the storm that is building in Alberta. All I want right now is to ask Who in Alberta wants the #Antivaxxer agenda to become the Provincial Government Agenda? Who in Alberta is for this? #AskingQuestions calgaryherald.com/opinion/column…

Let's speak clearly. Canada is one of the most peaceful, and prosperous countries in the world - not because of our geographic location, not because of genetic superiority. It is because of shared values and institutions that support those values.
Two of the most important institutions that keep Canada, Canada, are Public Health and Public Education. Any politician, who for self interested reasons, wishes to dismantle public health or public education, has to be challenged by members of the public.
We are living in volatile times. Extremists always take advantage of volatility and potential instability. No one should overlook flaws in our institutions that need patching. Patching is not the equivalent of burning it all down. Burning it down populism is great media fodder.

Canada Is Right to Be Worried About the Right-Wing Unraveling of the US "Tucker Carlson called Justin Trudeau a 'Stalinist dictator' and claimed the progressive Prime Minister had 'suspended democracy and declared Canada a dictatorship.' Cdns take that sort of thing seriously"
"when America's top cable host tells such vicious lies about their nation and its elected leaders, they worry about what may come next. Carlson, after all, has promoted the White Replacement Theory that led to the recent murders in Buffalo, New York"
"how many killings might similar rhetoric spark in Canada if they were directed against residents of that nation? The trucker convoy, first seen as a simple protest against a vaccine requirement to cross the US border, shocked Canadians when they discovered

#Kenney You won't read a bushel of bromides from me about Kenney's contributions to Cdn democracy. Our democracy is in dire need of good human beings in positions of authority. 3 years ago on my show, I gave him an hour to pass the Human Being Test.
He was flailing . So I gave several chances to self correct. In the end I even gave him the easiest test for redemption. Asked him to apologize for his evil behavior in San Francisco, working to deny dying Gay men in hospice care, the chance to receive visits with their partners.
Decades had passed. I thought he had grown. I was wrong. Couldn't even winch himself out of the ditch to say I'm sorry. Canadians were stunned by the cold clumsy callousness - a Wizard of Oz moment. Nothing behind the curtain. The big man reduced himself to a blithering buffoon.

On this thread a from 7yr old clip. A VP Joe Biden, stating the obvious. Immigration flows to the US eventually makes a Whites a minority by 2017. Biden calls it a source of the country's strength. Now it should require no imagination to see how this feeds the RW Ecosystem that
promotes #WhiteReplacementTheory They have said for years now that that immigration policy isn't about growing the economy. It's about growing votes for the Democrats. Ted Cruz likes to say that those who illegally cross the southern border aren't undocumented immigrants.
Texas Senator Cruz calls them "undocumented Democrats" No Canadian need to get smug about this. This exact same argument will grow in Canada in the coming years. Many on the Right will argue that Liberal governments use immigration to reduce the percentage of Whites in Canada.

Let's be 100% clear. Something is happening in Ottawa & Coutts, AB, that many Cdns have seen in other parts of the world - the beginnings of an uprising. Uprisings don't need majority support. They need some of what the Convoy has, as the occupation of downtown Ottawa continues.
We can focus on the ugly banners and the desecration of monuments & institutions. They assault the Cdn heart-difficult to watch. But they are pathetic side shows. Canada's police services & possibly our military need to end the occupation of the core area of the nation's capital.
If Cdn authority looks weak & helpless for much longer, this could spread beyond Ottawa & Coutts,AB (U.S.border) No matter how many videos #PierrePoilievre chooses to record, surrounding himself w bubbly Canadians, partying while residents & businesses suffer, this is no party.

"The main reason why large parts of the country, including Ontario and Quebec, are repeatedly being put into severe lockdowns compared to other comparable, developed countries is due to
the chronic lack of surge capacity in our hospitals, due to a combination of decades or provincial & federal gov't underfunding and administrative incompetence." Nobody I know inside the system denies Lorrie Goldstein's observation. It's not some ideological twit's talking point.
I'm not big on vaccine hesitancy, refusal or resistance. Nothing in my record shows me faking respect for the decision not to get vaxxed, unless a serious doctor is advising their patient against it because of health issues. But let's tell the whole truth.
