Of course Danielle Smith should be prosecuted for obstructing justice. Read for yourself: 1) She asked the Crown to change its document disclosure to the accused.

2) She asked the Crown to show the accused clemency.

3) She ADMITS this on tape.

Of course those are attempts (albeit lame ones) to pervert the course of Justice. Prosecute her.

You know that so-called blockbuster that “proved” COVID came from an infected animal?

Well, the scientists behind it are now in trouble, suspended from data access for unethically stealing credit from their colleagues. thestar.com/news/canada/20… The facts are these: low quality, incomplete genetic evidence suggests an animal origin, and low quality, incomplete espionage suggests a negligent lab leak. Either is possible, putting odds on it is guesswork. Anyone professing to “know” simply doesn’t.
