'Unhinged conspiracy theorists': Kenney condemns actions and claims of some pandemic

[rumrocks]

I watch cbc whenever justin makes a mistake, just to see if they cover it. So yes I've been watching cbc way more than I care for the last few years.
Back in the good old days the cbc would show heated exchanges between the parties during question period, but not anymore, this liberal government would just repeat the same 3 or 4 responses to most questions asked. . . . standing up . . . got your back . . . day and night . . .
The media just seem to be light on reporting the PM's blunders in my opinion, it's almost like he was paying to look the other way, what are your thoughts.

No doubt things get carried away on both sides.
The co founder of BLM has some questions to answer for that will get completely ignored. Poor a$$ me buying million dollar properties from nothing.
Who is the only president to lose money , who gain the most .... not sure just asking
As will the esteemed Lincoln Project that Chuck was so proud of , sexual abuse of children is the worst crime in humanity but gets oversighted by the left as well. Chuck ?
Not defending any other group either, just pointed that out to make a point of indifference

let’s never throw stones in glass houses and all , most of us are and never have
been involved in any of this b/S

Looks like a very turbulent time ahead , glad most of us farm.

Kenney is just another pig at the trough just like trueau, not wanting to jeopardize his gold plated pensions ! Not one but two

Rachel the Knothead is no better. Period.

chuck the selective cut and paste hack forgot to tell you there are daily protests in toronto, vancouver and montreal too, definitely alt right fanatics in those cities right?. Internationally, London, Paris, Germany have them daily too. Those must be Qanon.

The red brigade from eastern Mb seem to have missed that one too.

Wonder how many covid spreading Christian churches are in Peel which has the highest transmission rate in the country? Maybe forage can google that for us.

Many points to touch on. First, Ajl, I have to agree that my desire to vote for Jason Kenney again is wavering, the unfortunate thing is if I vote for the Alberta Party or the Wildrose Independence Party I am really voting for Notley, because splitting the right of center vote no doubt helps the NDP get elected, so certainly a tough choice.
As for Jason Kenney’s rant, I think from the start of Covid Jason Kenney has tried to listen to public opinion and respond to it which has certainly made him appear to look indecisive. Look at polling 45% think restrictions in Alberta have gone to far but 42% think restrictions haven’t gone far enough. How do you govern a populace with opinion basically split down the middle? I would say his rant is a frustrated reaction to this reality! Not defending him, just an observation.
Media bias, In my opinion I am slightly right of center. I would say CBC is predominantly left of center, national post and the Sun predominately right of center and the Globe and Mail in the center. With CTV and Global this varies depending on where the broadcast originates.
As for vaccine efficacy, my one daughter works in the health care system, lately there have been people hospitalized after having been vaccinated, I read a CBC article where this was happening in New Brunswick, I am sure it is happening everywhere. Personally I am pro vaccination, I have spent a lifetime vaccinating either pigs or cattle to prevent various diseases with positive but certainly not perfect results. Do I think the Covid vaccine will eliminate Covid? No I don’t but I hope it makes it more manageable.
As to whether various Conservative leaders were ready. Jim Prentice made the mistake of calling an election to quickly, Andrew Scheer plain and simple was to honest, Kenney is a proficient orator but appears to be a poor decision maker and manager. Erin O’Toole, I thought he had a chance, far superior resume to Justin Trudeau, I think a good speaker but in the woke unrealistic Canada of today his failure at the Conservative convention to see the risk of the motion on climate change being voted down and the resulting fallout in public opinion that has given the next election to the very incompetent and in my opinion future killing Justin Trudeau, is very sad. It is interesting to note that Justin Trudeau has had many policy failures and ethical lapses in the last 5 years and yet Canadians still support him, hard to figure!! Also unfortunate that conservatives can never fall in lockstep behind their leaders like members of other parties!

The easy explanation is there are small number of idiots everywhere who fall for wacky conspiracy theories. And as I mentioned, Doug Ford has addressed their stupidity. Its notable that even those premiers who have been reluctant to impose covid lockdowns are now calling a spade a spade.

Most Canadians are way to progressive for the CPC. THE CPC seems to remain stuck in the past while the world changes. Otoole would like to move the party forward but half the party want to go backwards.

It always amazes me that a relatively small number of mostly western rural voters think that the rest of the country should think like them and share their specific points of view. And when that doesn't happen they are surprised. Tunnel vision I guess.

The 41% who think restrictions did not go far enough are the folks that support the NDP, work for government, and do not contribute anything to making civilized life possible for the rest of us. They are parasitical leaches and hopefully the vaccines make them go away. If Kenny was smart, he has to pay attention to the other 59% exclusively because that it where his votes come from. Why does he cater to them? If the government had done nothing at all, we would be better off today than where we are at now so why the pandering to those who will not support the UCP no matter what. Deaths with ccp flu = many, deaths from ccp flu = 0. Reality is that some cultures who do not obey our laws do what they want, are untouchable by law enforcement, and spread ccp flu while the rest of us interact only minimally as it is and would not have spread the ccp flu anyways. Now there are lockdown games and scamdemic theater forever.
It is all a game so that useless bureaucrats can feel relevant. I would fire about 2/3 of the snivel disservice so they could get real jobs and solve the labor shortage in one go.
