My body clearly hates me and I am a bit cranky.
Nothing I have is curable, so don't pester me with "Cures".

COVID isn’t acting like the viruses most of us grew up with, and treating it like “just a cold” is putting people at real risk. David Brasure breaks down why SARS-CoV-2 is fundamentally different, how it causes long-term damage, and what we can do to protect ourselves.

Prime Minister Mark Carney disagrees with the concept of a premier of one province unilaterally taking over a different province but his hands are tied by his unwillingness to do anything about it.

Everything else aside, the first test for whether anyone is "pro-life" is to see what personal effort they're putting in to protect others from unnecessary infections like COVID.
If they're only "pro life" when it's about what other people should be forced to do, it's just extremist virtue-signals.

Alaberta Smith is claiming:
•Judges aren’t elected, so they don’t have legitimacy.
•Courts “overstep” when they disagree with her.
•The notwithstanding clause is her tool to override “incorrect” court decisions.
•SHE gets to decide what is “correct,” not constitutional law.

Since we in Alberta are hearing the phrase “elective surgery” bandied about so freely today, it doesn’t mean a nice to have surgery it means a surgery that can be scheduled. So say you have uterine cancer and you are not in the ER dying. Your surgery to remove your uterus is elective, scheduled
