Huh? I thought his opening paragraph made it fairly clear? And I'm not even a native speaker...
It's a war of the mind and we're armed to the teeth.
I reread it and I get it now but it didn’t seem clear to me at first. My bad. Sorry mcski

On AB. Yes its interesting that a passport ( which is a 180 reverse for Kenny AB Premier) caused such an up tick. Will have to see or be interesting to see what affect it has intermediate term , compare rate 1 week before passport to 4 weeks after. Did it really move the needle? Maybe need lots of things spaced 3-4 weeks apart because it doesn't seem that case counts /ICU etc move the needle.
Yes its the most American province by attitude but in reality it probably lines up with the best of the states in vax rate and in deaths cumulative is actually lower than the national average. Helped a lot by the fact it totally missed the first wave that hit Que and Ont. Its tole is 57 per 100,000 whereas the national average is 72. US rate is 200 per 100k. This is not to say don't criticize AB as its way better than US. But to point out that headlines are often misleading. Yes AB admitted it made a mistake with the total opening up but when AB fills up its ICU beds it started with alot fewer beds per capita than the US. Same with India, that was 8 weeks ago huge crisis in India, if you look back at that wave it was tiny in comparison. Its peak is 1/2 of the current rate in US.
I was hopeful on AB strategy would work as at some point it has to end, but I didn't think they had the vax rate to really support that approach. They didn't and it failed. Which means that the vax rate really has to hit 90? or have a lots of ICU beds.
Whatever the conflict here in this thread is it really amounts to nothing compared to the real world anti 's . I joined on FB Fully Open Canada Chat Room and its got a lot of anger , misinformation and Freedoooommm. They really think that they are superior and oppressed.
Perhaps Alberta is a great reference point for how you need more than just a high percentage vax rate. You need the other measures in place as well. The whole “pandemic is over” was not an approach anyone else appeared to be taking. So their read on things was a failure. And the public (especially the health care workers) is suffering as a result.

Go that way really REALLY fast. If something gets in your way, TURN!
Apparently offering reluctant Albertans 100$ each to vax didnt work,
instituting a Vax passport has
ergo it would seem withholding seems 4 times > a carrot

someone was just whining that our government is broken, but they don't want an election which would theoretically change the government ?
but they were just complaining cuz its not the gov they want
our gov IS working because we are having an election that nobody wants
the duly elected PM who nobody likes has so far not been accused of stealing an election,
he will probably be re-elected by a country who doesn't even like him
and nobody is open carrying anything
35 million negative normans and Nancy's ... welcome to canada eh

what is the next carrot or stick?
in 4 four weeks in future if you go to a bar and cause a freedom scene you will get tazered in the balls?
tax breaks , basically increase tax and then give everyone who is vaxxed a break on the increases?
what else can you give or take away?
In AB? Limit the sale of a new full-sized pickup to the vaxxed only.
Krispy Kreme did it right: the sooner you got the shot the more donuts you got. $100 once just says: wait--next month it'll be more!!
BAAHAHAHAHA !!!
