From a /r/lockdownskepticismcan post:

“This article clarifies O'Toole's position. He does not want a nationwide vaccine passport.

O'Toole's plan relies heavily on persuading more Canadians to get vaccinated through a public information campaign that will "appeal to Canadians' patriotism" and by providing incentives, such as paid time off work and free transportation to vaccine appointments.

...

This plan doesn't include a vaccine mandate or passport, but it would require unvaccinated civil servants and domestic travellers boarding a bus, plane, train or boat to show recent negative COVID-19 test results or undergo rapid testing. It also promises to work with provinces to develop a national proof-of-vaccination system that could be used for international travel.

O'Toole sought to portray his approach to COVID-19 as fair, co-operative and focused on understanding why some people have yet to get vaccinated, rather than demonizing them — something he accused the Trudeau Liberals of doing in an attempt to score political points on the campaign trail. 

Global News is trash.”

Just for some context. Still dumb but better than the liberals I think ?

Agree. Apparently if you get out of the city you can find some more proper conservative types.

but for the 3 seconds going from the front door to inside the gym, you absolutely must wear a bullshit mask

This sort of thing, I can't believe people are this flagrantly idiotic. It's all for show.

Good on you man. Keep it up. Yep, the virus is basically a flu. The threat has been overplayed and our reaction has been crazy. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/07/exclusive-coronavirus-study-confirms-exception-new-york-new-jersey-overall-mortality-not-much-different-bad-flu-season/

Not the most scientific source but it's a simple summary of the actual data. Blame the media and the useless public health officials for allowing this to go on.

Sweden is done with it now, even though they didn't lockdown. It looks like the "second wave" in the states (just first wave in different places) is declining now too. The virus doesn't seem to care if you lockdown or not. You'd think "public health officials" could figure this out. But we're still playing this ridiculous song and dance, now it's time to mask up.

The problem is we can't just talk about this amongst ourselves. We have to get it out of these circles and into the general public.
