Alberta’s Jason Kenney raises concerns, warns ‘populism with a snarl’ not conservatism
While staying away from strict lockdowns early on in the pandemic, the Alberta government under Kenney followed other provinces in pre-vaccine measures like limiting personal gatherings or limiting indoor capacity.Provincial policy then yo-yoed to being “Open for Summer” in 2021, ahead of subsequent waves that would stuff Alberta hospitals to bursting with COVID patients.
Alberta’s outgoing premier noted that when introducing restrictions in response to the dire capacity problems in hospitals he would be met with angry Albertans.“I think there is a small but very energized faction of the public here in Alberta and elsewhere who right now are frankly looking for recrimination on COVID, on vaccines, on issues like these globalist conspiracy theories that are circulating,” Kenney said.
“I think a conservative party or government that is focused on a campaign of recrimination over COVID, politicizing science, entertaining conspiracy theories, campaigning with Q and on is a party that can’t form government and shouldn’t,” Kenney said.
