Preston Manning to chair Alberta Premier’s pandemic committee

Preston Manning, the former leader of the Reform Party who is now investigating how federal and provincial policies during the COVID-19 pandemic hurt citizens, will chair Alberta’s COVID-19 committee.

Mr. Manning last year launched what he called a national citizen’s inquiry, with plans to explore the social and economic harm federal and provincial governments inflicted as a result of COVID-19 public-health restrictions. The inquiry planned to host a series of hearings across Canada, starting in Moncton and Montreal, funded through donations.

Mr. Manning referred questions about Alberta’s COVID-19 committee to the provincial government. Ms. Smith’s office said it would offer more information in a news release Thursday afternoon.

$253,000 for what? Plus his $2,000,000 budget. What about the 800,000 lives saved in Canada? Which would be roughly 80,000 in Alberta.

Prestoon… 50 plus years of grift.

True Canadian hero. I look forward to their findings.

Just another Bob Rae collecting a paycheque for doing nothing. What a way to waste more of our tax money.

Good old Preston. Never turn down tax payers money for doing nothing your qualified for. And for something that isn't needed.

Oh my God!

Waste of funds

Is this the Beaverton? Tell me it’s a joke. NeverVoteConservative

Great choice!!

That’s is so freaking politically hilarious. Kenney totally screwed up COVID in alberta so they get someone who is even more rightie than kenney to cover up his blunders. What a joke.

Premiers want Ottawa to fix the bail system, but are provinces doing enough?Criminal defence lawyer says provinces can do a better job of ensuring bail conditions imposed by the courts are being followed Canada is a joke. Nobody is in charge. Everything is broken. Generally, most of these people being held on bail - some might say unfairly, have committed, several or many violent crimes. A large number have no fixed address and don't have a job, I don't think the risk assessment is that tricky. Um the criminal code is federal responsibility…embarrassing I know Globe
