In what version of cloud cuckoo land is a picture of a politician getting a vaccine amid a devastating virus outbreak considered brave? That would be Alberta, apparently, where the Premier is facing a caucus revolt and a serious backlash within his United Conservative Party ranks – not for failing to take serious enough action to halt the virus, but for taking measures viewed as too restrictive. (Among those measures are a prohibition on indoor dining, restrictions on gatherings to household members only and a cap on normal occupancy rates for indoor religious services.)

Oh look, the sheeple have spoken out against Alberta. Again.

'It'll crash tremendously': Alberta now leads Canada and U.S. in per capita COVID-19 cases​



"We're currently the highest number of cases per capita, so when the health system crashes, it'll crash tremendously," said Gibson.

Translation: Alberta sucks.

I don't, but good line. 👌

Now can I replace the title in the OP with this one?

Someone at CTV needs a raise.

Is snubbing "rules" really why it's spreading? I'd wager several factors correlate quite easily. Transit ridership, use of cash, population density, population age, race, employment, etc.
