The science is settled, Florida has done the experiment, there is no health benefit for masks and shutdowns.
But the Bolshevik evidence is strong too, and Canada is correctly following that formula, so can't say that the government is making a mistake when they are hitting their goals.
Honestly even if they wanted to there's too much inertia at this point. Over half the country is genuinely scared shitless about the pandemic and convinced that the lockdowns are helping. Remember at best ~25% of the population think the lockdowns are too strict. Any attempt to change course now would ensure their defeat at the next election.
I am in BC. Was buying milk at Walmart a few weeks ago. I'm lactose intolerant and for some reason Walmart doesn't know how to just put our milk with the regular milk (it's not that difficult) so I'm watching these ladies look at the non dairy options. I wait and wait and wait. They are taking forever and I just want to check if my damn milk is there. So I'm wearing mask (only because I don't feel like fighting with store staff when I go shopping, it's just much easier to be able to get my food) so anyway I walk up and check for my milk in the gap between the two ladies. And they start losing their minds. I just shrug and tell them "Well maybe if you didn't take 10 minutes to decide which type of soy milk you wanted I wouldn't have had to do that." I check, my milk isn't there. They give me disgusted glares and go back to standing in front of the milk.
A bit later I saw them in the checkout still giving me death glares lol.
