What public health?
Most public health officers are saying we need to live with the flu.
It's dictators like Trudeau that love the power and are continuing this.
Andrew Coyne explained the public health benefits very well in his Op-Ed in the G&M today. Maybe you don't know anyone who's life has been saved, or anyone that has lost their life, but a lot of Canadians have direct connections.

For all the mistakes our governments have made in dealing with the COVID pandemic, Canada has one of the developed world’s lowest death rates from the disease: roughly a third of the United States’, per capita; less than 40 per cent of the United Kingdom’s; half of France’s; two-thirds of Germany’s.

By the more comprehensive “excess deaths” measure (comparing overall population death rates since the pandemic began to what they were before), Canada’s relative success is even more striking. Among the developed countries, only New Zealand, Australia, Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, Norway, Denmark and Ireland have done better.

What accounts for this? Could one of the world’s highest vaccination rates have anything to do with it? Might it be in some way related to one of the world’s most stringent systems of public-health restrictions? Correlation is not causation, but if the common-sense explanations don’t account for it, what does? Tiresome as these measures have become, they seem to have worked; costly as they may have been, the payoff has been astronomical – literally tens of thousands of lives saved.

Ah yes an opinion by a journalist. I don't subscribe to the government sponsored globe and mail so I can't read it but from what you posted there is no data to back up his OPINION.
Another sheep following the government shepherds.

Question? You talk about getting rid of Kenney yet you are from Saskatchewan? Kenney basically has matched Scott Moes program but actually has dropped the REP program 6 days sooner. Why don’t you bitch about him?

Does it really matter, They are both liars. They have caused mass amounts of destruction and death. Any opinions to get rid of Kenny is good no matter where they are from!

Why are you bitching about Tim Hortons? This is about Canadian Freedom and getting rid of a dictator!

I think you can align a lot of guys on here with the same mentality of NDP Rachel Notley....no matter what Kenny does, its wrong or not enough, etc, etc.... all bitch, no solution.
a bunch of bitchin and complaining Rachels.

He's announced an end to this. Yes, its in a couple steps but basically in 3 weeks, we're done.

The border crossing rules...that's a federal ruling, not provincial

Wouldn't you also have to take into consideration the general health of the population, lifestyle choices, environmental impacts, etc. Seems there could be a lot of other factors involved. USa, UK, France, Germany, all have higher density for a given land mass. They also have a lot more movement of people throughout their respective territories.

Yup, we were all there...and obviously, in hindsight, it was too soon.
same thing now, they will lift restrictions but if something worse comes along, they have to address the situation and react to it, what other answer is there?

Come on that would like using actual data and common sense. None of that is allowed in today's "science"

The Answer is to cut the BS and end the lies and BS numbers. They have done nothing but lie and deceive us and now good luck getting any trust back. This isn’t speculation, its been shown multiple times how they lied and BS’ed us over and over. Quit manipulating numbers to push your agenda. Again this has been proven over and over. They even lied right on live TV, in a news release, some top health authority said that particular day was “record setting” number of ICU patients. Well, a quick search on AHS’s own website shows thats a lie. Or the classic, oh were over run with patients, were at 105% capacity. Again, this is nothing more than fear mongering, our Hospitals are always busy. In fact look back to pre Plandemic years, often over 100% capacity, its Not abnormal. In fact Hospitals are designed to be full, there not considered efficient when there Empty.
So cut the sh*t, drop the mandates and lets put this car wreck behind us already.

i agree nothing but bread crumbs from Kenny! lots of things can happen before step 2 even kicks in, then the step 3 carrot? BS open it up Kenny , Step down, i suspect any politician who has attended the World Economic Forum to be focused on keeping the New World Order on track. kenny needs to go, i'd also suspect anyone promoting Randy also?
