When the initial wave hit, they said they did not have ICU capacity thus they needed the lockdowns. Fine. Almost 2 years later they have done nothing to improve the capacities and now they are in the midst of another lockdown? They had their chance to "flatten the curve". Now its time to move on.
They also laid off or fired twenty percent of their workforce .

The msn and most notably but hardly surprising the cbc were doing their best to foment violence with article after article predicting just that. They must be so disappointed that it has yet to happen.
Someone defaced the Terry Fox Memorial by hanging a flag on it . Oh the horror .

Another unaware person.
Clearly unaware of the costs pf equipment and infrastructure needed for an ICU.
Spending money on covid crisis and front line workers leaves little to expand hospitals..... at any time and even less so during a pandemic.
Flatten the curve??? And what did they not do to try and flatten the curve? What do you suggest they should have done??
They should have protected the elderly and left the rest alone .

CBC reported Saturday morning that Trudeau and family were relocated from their home at Rideau Cottage to an undisclosed location for their safety. The Prime Minister is working remotely somewhere in the Capital Region.

Trudeau, hasn’t directly addressed the ongoing demonstrations, which are spread throughout Ottawa and across the country.

However, after he was relocated, Trudeau remained active on Twitter, condemning Islamaphobia and racism and commemorating victims of the tragic mosque killings.

In previous comments, Trudeau has called the truckers protest a “a small fringe minority” holding “unacceptable” views.

On Friday, he described his worry (Was that worry or HOPE?) that the protests might turn violent.

“Of course I’m concerned,” he said. “A number of people are there without wanting to incite violence but (Please-Please-Please?) there are going to be, as we’ve heard, a small group of people in there who are posing a threat to themselves, to each other, to Canadians.”
For his safety . Right .

Yup, like Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy, the health care and PSW workers should be at all those places at the same time.
Tsk, Tsk, Tsk, sometimes simpletons just prove themselves for what they are. LOL

No ICU beds were shut down. General beds and non urgent surgery were becasue the staff that were attending them were needed in ICU
Or laid off . Those that weren’t found themselves so overwhelmed they made tic tok videos .
