There's something not right about the number of "deaths". Alberta has a similar population to Norway, similar case counts, and similar vaccination rate. Norway is opening up and has almost no deaths, Alberta has 20+ deaths per day and supposedly is in crisis. The only difference I can think of is big city demographics in Alberta and hospital unions/workers being anti-conservative, the extent that they're willing to go on strike during a pandemic. https://edmonton.ctvnews.ca/strike-inevitable-for-alberta-nurses-likely-two-months-away-1.5565332
Well maybe the government could have spent that $400+ Billion on beefing up the nations healthcare system instead of handing out $2000 a month CERB cheques to every person who was too lazy to work or got screwed over by the very restrictions that the government, not the virus put into place.
If a couple hundred people spread across a province is enough to sink the system that should have been a massive wake up call. Christ, we've known the system was spread thin for a very long time now and we've done very, very little to address it let alone fix it.
But rather than fix it here we are firing healthcare workers that don't want to be bossed around with vaccine mandates. By the way, where are all the sick and dying nurses, doctors, care-aids? I mean for the past two years they have been on the front lines dealing with Covid patients non stop everyday.....why haven't we been seeing them drop like flies? I haven't seen or heard jackshit about that.

It's the unvaxxed few that are taking up most of the covid ICU beds,
