Notice how 2022 will be the worst ever for COVID deaths?
That’s because the mandates were lifted.
🙁
Canadian Covid Deaths [divide these numbers by 10-20 to get the number of deaths from being who weren't already dying from cancer or other diseases - normally, multiple diseases]:
2020: 15,569.
2021: 14,473.
2022: 11,684.
https://health-infobase.canada.ca/covid-19/?stat=num&measure=active&map=pt#a7So not only did only 5-10% of those people die directly of Covid, but the average age of a Canadian death is *79* [and 84 in the USA].
And we crushed the global economy over this?

Canada spent literally a trillion dollars on this - and reduced ICU capacity in six provinces, to make it LOOK like the empty Canadian hospitals were overwhelmed.
What an absolute fraud.
And yes, OAK - we will have more 80-year-olds with cancer dying WITH Covid now that mandates have been dropped.
Would you prefer us to stay in permanent lockdown so that octogenarians live an extra 18 months?
How about all the people who postponed cancer screenings, and the others who didn't go to the ER, and died at home of heart attacks and strokes because they were scared to catch Covid at hospitals? How about the fact that 10x as many Canadians aged 20-49 died of increased drug overdoses caused by lockdowns than of Covid during the pandemic? Is that ok with you?
How many lives could have been saved if we spent that TRILLION DOLLARS on other healthcare services?
Do you care about any of that? Or are you only worried about 99.9% survivable flus?
