COVID-19 cases skyrocket in Alberta with 501 new infections recorded in a single day

Looks like harvest may resume here today
High winds took some canola swaths here yesterday and a neighbor lost a lot of swathed peas
Some hail fell here

BC has a covid problem too. But they have not removed all their covid restrictions.

So why do you want to allow another 4th wave to easily take over with no measures at all to reduce the spread?

The 4th wave amongst the unvaccinated will shut down a lot of things again. Is that what you want?

If you are unvaccinated stay at home and let the rest of us enjoy our freedom.

Its time for proof of vacination if you want to go out in public for non essential activities. It will only be a matter of time and it will be required even in Alberta.

So will the rising 4th wave stop our vacuous Prime Minister from calling an election?!

I guess the obvious conclusion that others are trying to point out to you is that all your mitigation measures that make you feel warm and safe are doing Sh1t Fock All.

A couple things here.

1. Is anyone surprised at this?

2. Could someone do a comparison to the outbreaks of regular flu occurrences in previous years.

Using statistics from 2018 the death rate from influenza and pneumonia was 19.33 per day for a total of 7,054 for the year.
There were 6 deaths with COVID in Canada yesterday

I wish he would just call the phucking thing.. He has a majority coming and the backroom must be getting antsy for some more cash to line their pockets..

How are the potatoes this year?
Some say the only get 2 small ones from a hill even eith truckloads of water.
No big ripe tomatoes for toasted samiches yet.
Might try corn this weekend.

Moe and Saskatchewan are a close second. Scotty likes to try to keep up the covid incompetence in Alberta! LOL

So BC had more cases than Alberta and your virtue signaling Alberta ....... 😂

Potatoes have more underground than the top growth would indicate. Picked about 8 cracking but ripe tomatoes the other day. Makes store bought even more tasteless than they seem in winter. Corn should be a week to try here.
