Nice
Itβs a virus not a diseaseβ¦
It’s an apple, not a fruit! Don’t quit your day job there Sparky!
@Lewis Duffy a virus is a real detectable physical thing and can be observed through a microscope. A disease term to define conditions that adversely effect the human body for many reasons most of which we canβt fully comprehend and is a human construct
@iAmDrosπ¨π¦ Please provide your medical credentials. Next time you’re ill by all means go see a trucker. I’ll go to my doctor thanks.
It is a virus that causes a disease. See? One is a cause, the other is an effect. Questions?
@Islay Lamb Yes, what disease is caused by the COVID-19 virus?
Moving forward, no government position, from alderman, mayor, right up to Prime Minister, or their families, should be allowed to hold investment profiles that include pharmaceutical companies, or defense contractors. This should be passed into Canadian law as soon as possible.
Do you mean should not be allowed?
@Darlene Shriver … ‘No one should be allowed’ … Learn to read..
@Darlene Shriver Read it again. I clearly said “no government position”. Adding “should not be allowed” is a double negative. If you remove “from alderman, mayor right up to Prime Minister or their families”, and then read it, you will understand. Not trying to attack you, just pointing out the obvious.
@Eric Duggan so sorry I had just quickly glanced through the message no need to be nasty! I totally agree with what was said!
100% agreed
Evan Solomon is trying to make a name for himself as a patsy for the establishment.
Listening to the citizenry is now referred to as “caving in.” Ain’t that just grand.
And listening to health care experts has become a thing to sneer at. Protestors forming public health policy. Ain’t that just grand.
When we see 80 yo politicians partying massless, the logical conclusion is that itβs safe.
Of COURSE this was a political decision to change mandates. I hear you and then I hear ALL of our doctors saying the opposite. And why wonβt you do more to protect teachers from belligerent parents? If a teacher chooses to wear a mask, is that not their right? Should they keep defensive weapons at hand in case more belligerent protesting parents enter the schools again?
Who said teacher can wear masks? Do whatever you want to your body but do force it on other.
@amal kubari And of course the rights of adults who are forced to work in close quarters with the unvaccinated are ignored. I will not work in close quarters with anyone who did not care as much about my safety or comfort as they care about their own. You know, normal consideration for others stuff. That is MY right.
@Piktor Music youβd have an argument if the vaccines prevented transmission or illness. But they donβt.
Can anyone hear the bias in the questions asked our Premier?
Im not a conservative voter but i thought Mr Kenney was very well spoken on the issue. You can only keep peoplebin a?state of emergency for so long and in a free country you have to accept some risk in order to stay free.
I will be rethinking who I vote for in the future
Well, there’s always Skippy Poillievre who hasn’t been heard from since he posed with the so-called “truckers” and declared he’s running for Prime Minister (even though we don’t elect PMs in this country). A party that has had 6 leaders in 7 years and has lost the last 3 elections doesn’t hold much promise. Time to consider the NDP?
It’s time to try something new…. GIVE THE WILDROSE INDEPENDENCE PARTY A TRY!
Not hard to tell heβs a liberal, defending Trudeau π
HOLD THE LINE!
POLICE AND MILITARY, EVERYWHERE! … FIND SOME MORAL COURAGE!
“No, I will NOT obey unlawful orders!”
Is your JOB worth losing your integrity and the trust of the communities you serve?
Listening to the citizenry is now referred to as “caving in.” Ain’t that just grand.
You can’t equate environmental protests, with constitutional rights protest. It’s not the same.
When we see 80 yo politicians partying massless, the logical conclusion is that itβs safe.

Pierre is doing what is right, Ms. Bergen is doing what is right
