The leader of the Canadian province of Alberta is apologizing for his handling of the pandemic and now says he’s now reluctantly introducing a vaccine passport and imposing a mandatory work from home order two months after lifting nearly all restrictions.

Alberta declared a public health emergency as Premier Jason Kenney said hospitals might run out of beds and staff in intensive care units within 10 days.Indoor dining at pubs and restaurants is now banned.

Kenney said COVID-19 is hitting Alberta harder than anywhere else in Canada because it has the lowest rate of vaccination in the country. He apologized for misreading the coronavius’ likely path in June but said he wasn’t sorry for lifting all restrictions. He said he didn’t think a pandemic-weary population would continue to follow them.“The government’s first obligation must be to avoid large numbers of preventable deaths. We must deal with the reality we are facing. We cannot wish it away,” Kenney said.

The premier, who is leader of the United Conservative Party, had declared the summer would be the “best summer ever,” but he said Wednesday that Alberta is now facing its greatest health care challenge. Several Canadian provinces are bringing in vaccine passports, which compel people to prove they have been vaccinated before being allowed to use nonessential services such as pubs and restaurants. Kenney had resisted such measures.

He walked back the apology and his vaccine passport is less than it seems. He also lied when he said Alberta has lowest rate of death. In fact it is the 4th highest rate of death in the 13 provinces and territories.

Does it really count as an apology if he walks it back a few minutes later?

We’d be far better off if more leaders admitted they were wrong when they clearly were really, really, excruciatingly wrong.

The Ability to Change is a Sign of Intelligence!! Adapt & Overcome!!!

Peacherina2 Canadians can learn. Americans apparently cannot.

“I’m sorry for thinking the government shouldn’t restrict its people and freedoms.” Sounds like it wanted to not by tyrannical, but reverted to taking the steps toward it.

Governments are NOT reporting vaccine side effects

That wasn't an apology.

Well well Alberta you are 1…….🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

nice
