    Alberta declares State of Public Health Emergency

    Fact checkers are useful when choosing to compare mulitple sources to get a comprehensive view of any given situation. Just about all sources have something to offer, even if it's just to find out what the nutballs are thinking. With some advance idea of a source's bias you can use your own...

    Some truckers choose to quit instead of complying with federal vaccine mandate

    What do you think these truckers are basing their decision on ? Professional, expert advice, or something they read on facebook ?

    Alberta declares State of Public Health Emergency

    Finding an unbiased news source these days is a challenge, but at the other end of the scale it's pretty easy to identify an unreliable source. There are mulitple fact-checking sites, checking a number of them will give you a pretty good idea of what you're dealing with. I find that those...

    Some truckers choose to quit instead of complying with federal vaccine mandate

    Young people entering the workforce are not finding blue collar work particularly attractive it seems, everybody wants to be a computer this or a financial that. The not too distant future will be pretty rosy for those who don't mind geting their hands a little dirty, all the cadillacs and...

    Alberta declares State of Public Health Emergency

    Ezra Levant's content was limited to a few words, and restricted to name calling and silliness. No I wasn't okay with that but it's what to be expected from a boorish hack like Levant, his business is stirring the emotional pot, not courtesy and respect. The CBC content he retweeted was, from...

    Alberta declares State of Public Health Emergency

    To my knowledge City News doesn't have a rotten reputation like some of your other sources, so I have no reason to doubt the factual content of their reports. It's also plain to me that Levant was only using the news bite as an opportunity to take a shot at CBC, an admittedly left leaning news...

    Alberta declares State of Public Health Emergency

    Did I say that ? It hardly matters as the story they were reporting on is an isolated event and not enough to base wide ranging conclusions on. The fact that Ezra Levant is a con and a hack is beside the point too, other than it shows a willingness on your part to use unreliable sources.

    Alberta declares State of Public Health Emergency

    The main point here is that it was an isolated case with unique conditions, hardly something you could draw wide conclusions upon. My son had a brush with cancer and underwent chemo in the early days of the pandemic. He observed some stricter precautions in terms of mixing with the public but...

    Alberta declares State of Public Health Emergency

    I'm not seeing the connection between those posts and complete BS posted earlier about Covid stats in Scotland, it looks like diversion. I get that the "My rights are more important than our health" agenda is getting a lot of airplay these days, but when you get right down to it, it's driven by...

    Alberta declares State of Public Health Emergency

    Fake News and misinformation has become so common that it's foolish not to check sources. If your information is accurate then it should be no problem for you to find a more credible source to link to. An unvetted source is pretty much garbage these days, used only by people with an agenda...

    Alberta declares State of Public Health Emergency

    As any responsible seeker of truth should, I checked the "credentials" of the your source, The Daily Expose. I didn't have to go much further than that. Media Bias / Fact Check Conspiracy Level - Tin Foil Hat, Psuedo-Science Level - Quackery It should come as no surprise the the host site...

    Alberta declares State of Public Health Emergency

    Exactly. I get a solid chuckle whenever I see people posting hospital stats that consist almost entirely of unvaccinated patients as "proof" that the vaccines don't work. Welcome to the age of misinformation.

    Municipal governments- is it time that candidates indicate their political preferences?

    Municipal politics is a nice change from the partisan crap that takes up so much time on the provincial and federal stages. Councillors and candidates at the civic level are free to address actual issues of concern without having to bow to their political overlords. Once someone moves beyond...

    Possible yes, but not as likely as it is to catch it from an unvaxxed carrier. It's unvaxxed that are driving the spike in numbers, it's unvaxxed that are loading up the hospitals. It's not higher math. Even Albertans aare figuring it out, as shown by rising vax rates.
