  1. I think your last point is a very good one, and something that is frequently forgotten.
  2. The reality is that with Covid, serious illness and death primarily occur in people over the age of 65+ -- and the risk increases almost logarithmically with age. Kids, for the most part, have exceptionally low risks of serious illness. I've seen some arguments from bio-ethicists that we shouldn't even bother to vaccinate younger children.
  3. The article said they are working on one with Omicron, but they don't believe it will be ready before the fall.
  4. The notion that an Indian-Canadian Woman is supporting White Supremacy is farcical, and demonstrates the point of her OpEd.
  5. They've had a tough time demonstrating efficacy on younger children because their immune systems work differently than adults.
  6. Canada across the religious spectrum: A portrait of the nation’s inter-faith perspectives during Holy Week - Angus Reid Institute ANGUSREID.ORG Seven-in-ten say freedom of conscience makes Canada better; many worried that freedom is weakening April 18, 2022 – For the first time since 2019, Canadians across the religious spectrum are Similar (but slightly different) poll released in Canada today. I think there are some people who "identify" as being part of a religion -- who really aren't.
  7. More people voted Conservative in the last federal election that lived East of the Manitoba/Ontario border than West of it. Less than 30% of Conservative votes came from the Prairies. Prairies-style Conservatism is preventing us from getting a real alternative to the economic nightmare that is happening right now.
  8. They were purchased almost 2 years ago by a consortium that includes Jordan Bitove, Paul Rivett and former Premier of Ontario David Peterson (Liberal). The paper endorsed Trudeau in the 2021 election, and its editorial room remains fiercely anti-Conservative today. I can’t speak to what may or may not happen in the future.
  9. The only media source that I am aware of that is blatantly/unabashedly pro-Conservative and anti-Liberal is the Postmedia group of Newspapers. Toronto Star (both the Star and the Spec) and english-language CBC (Radio, TV and Internet) are blatantly/unabashedly anti-Conservative. I don't watch enough TV to have formed an opinion on Global/CTV News/City -- however, based on a lot of tweets from their reporters, the guys on the street certainly skew Liberal.
  10. The response to Poilivere going to a Sikh temple. Including the University of Ottawa professor who said he should have worn a hat.
