The Canadian Federal Government has done a great deal in trying to mitigate disease spread as well as negative personal/financial fallout caused by the pandemic. But, as Mr. Spot has stated, the Conservative provincial premiers in central and western Canada are effing morons.
If I had to describe the situation, I'd say that the Conservatives are pouring a watered-down version of the GOP kool-aid, hoping constituents are stupid, hateful and stubborn enough to drink it.
Obviously, I do not vote Conservative but I have in the past. Now, the Conservative Party is represented by lying weasels and misfit clowns who think they can pray and wish the truth away. Canada is not third-world but the Conservative provincial premiers are doing their best to bring central and western Canada down into third-world status.
