EDMONTON – Following the announcement of strict new measures to combat the out of control spread of COVID-19, Premier Jason Kenney announced he will make it up to Albertans by holding a surprise, fully un-masked Stampede festival next week.
Referring to his decision to lift many pandemic restrictions this summer, Kenney remarked, “It is now clear that we were wrong, and for that I apologize,†followed immediately by “and also everyone is invited to our totally-indoor Fall Stampede, complete with extra kissing booths and fun activities for your unvaccinated kids!â€
With Alberta declaring a state of public health emergency in light of drastically rising COVID case rates, Kenney emphasized the importance of his apology Stampede. “The doctors tell me we may run out of intensive care beds within the next 10 days, which is all the more reason to keep all Albertans away from the hospitals and enjoying themselves as they sit in packed stands screaming for some of the finest rodeo this side of the ICU.â€
Kenney added, “The two most important things Albertans can do right now is protect each other, and also attend this hastily-planned Stampede so they stop being mad at me.â€
The premier also assured Albertans that his apology Stampede would be fully compliant with the province’s newly-announced “restrictions exemption programâ€, which he insisted “is definitely not a vaccine passportâ€.
“We’re not going to make the same mistakes we made earlier this year,†Kenney insisted. “At my apology Stampede we’ll be keeping the vaccinated and non-vaccinated seating separate, just like how restaurants have smoking and non-smoking sections right next to each other.â€
“Still, just because vaccinated and non-vaccinated Albertans aren’t sitting together, that doesn’t mean they can’t share a plate of fine Alberta ribs,†Kenney added.
At press time PC leader Erin O’Toole was explaining to his campaign press corp that “Whatever Jason Kenney is currently doing is definitely the best COVID response in all of Canada.â€

Compliance and piles of paperwork to prove has been the name of the game for business for long time. Bureaucrats make it their life work dreaming up ways to justify their existence. All year long businesses deal with crap paperwork. Those of you who think that this kind of garbage hasn’t been status quo for however long we’ve been in business is just pure naive. Government has been flexing its muscles forever, requiring reams and reams of paperwork, making us prove compliance continually. This is not a surprise at all and its part of the cost of doing business. When the government says they are going to create new jobs, some of those jobs will be jobs for guys who create more requirements and hoops for us to jump through. Daily Paperwork, my friend and part of territory - no big deal!Last edited by sumdumguy; Sep 16, 2021, 06:41.

What is pretty obvious with several of the posts in this thread is the indifference a lot of libertarian types have to the suffering of others.
The libertarian values expressed can be summed up "I am fine and a covid health emergency that threatens the lives of the sick, vulnerable and unvaccinated is nothing to worry about!
It's the self centred on steroids.
I know several people who have other health issues to deal with and they are at risk of not getting timely and adequate medical treatment.
People are dying of covid folks, including more young and healthy people. And if they don't die they quite often have long haul symptoms that prevent them from resuming a normal happy life.
Instead we have put up with the retched snake oil salesmen telling us vaccines don't work or cause more illness than covid does.
Some of you covid denying and conspiracy spreading assholes will get covid with tubes inserted in places where the sun don't shine and have a "vacation" in the ICU.
Maybe then you would have a little understanding and empathy beyond your own selfishness.

I see Kenney picked up on the success of Justin's "Sunny Ways" slogan and decided to build on it with the "Best Summer Ever" Alberta 2021 hat.
Monkey see Monkey do!
I guess Jason's next copycat saying will be "The Budget will Balance it's self"Last edited by foragefarmer; Sep 16, 2021, 07:26.

People running scared every second of their life and posting about it dont deserve an ounce of freedom or security.

The trust the science crowd is going to have their comeuppance when the vaccines efficacy wanes in about 2 months. Then all the idiotic schemes to stop the spread will just look stupider.
I cant wait to hear the reason when the vaxxed make up 50% of the hospital cases like they do in Israel. Muh vax passport.
But by all means, keep going. Definition of insanity.Last edited by jazz; Sep 16, 2021, 08:12.
