You are smarter than to try and pretend you think they're even remotely comparable.

COVID is solved with a shot. Well, two shots I guess. Takes a total of like 5 minutes and zero effort from the unvaccinated. And I'm not even talking about forcing them to vaccinate. Just instituting appropriate measures to ensure their stupidity doesn't end up with innocents dying because our hospitals are full.

Solving drug addiction and gang violence is just a wee bit more complex.
If it's easier to solve why are we proposing to solve it with far more extreme measures than we attempt to solve the other problems?

My double vaccinated MIL is severely ill with COVID right now. Just started feeling symptoms yesterday. Shove your stats about vaccinated individuals Kenney! Tell us something meaningful about how you're going to address this pandemic!

Free cash? Great, thanks for that... How about a passport? Your carrots are not working anymore.

That's the wrong question.

The correct question is why do we need to?

Sure didn't sound like it, only for those getting a first or second dose.

Pay people for being selfish, while many countries in the world would kill for a vaccine dose.

No way $100 changes anyone's mind. Guess I was too hopeful for any real action.

So, wait...no further restrictions? We know best case vaccinations take a month or 2 for effectiveness.

What's going to reduce hospitalization growth in the meantime?

Offerings for the dumb butts eh.

Only in Alberta do you get rewarded for being a doofus.

Might squeeze out a few more vaccinations since most of these people are hypocrites so I guess it is something. But just baby half measures that don't help the present situation.

Recommended measure – Effective Sept. 4 at 8 a.m.
Employers are recommended to continue work-from-home measures and pause plans to have staff return to work.

Mandatory restriction – effective Sept. 4 at 8 am



Masks are mandatory in all indoor public spaces and workplaces.

Employees must mask in all indoor work settings, except in work stations or where 2 metre physical distancing or adequate barriers are in place.

Schools are not required to implement masking, but school boards will continue to set COVID-19 management policies as they deem appropriate.

Mandatory restriction - Effective Sept 4 at 8 am



Alcohol service must end at 10 p.m. in all licensed establishments.

New restrictions are at https://www.alberta.ca/covid-19-publ...h-actions.aspx


Basically re-instating masking except in schools, closing bars at 10pm, asking the unvaccinated to limit their social contacts.
