All governments in Canada have indicated they would like to move past Covid. Even Alberta's UCP gov has made it clear that this is a part of history that they would rather forget. I share that sentiment along with 1000's. There is unfortunately one key detail that prevents us from moving on...CLOSURE. During the 2022 @Alberta_UCP leadership race there were only 2 of the 7 leadership candidates that promised full accountability, a public inquiry and the desire to take the steps needed to provide CLOSURE for tens of thousands of Albertans. 20 months later now Premier @ABDanielleSmith has largely failed to deliver on key components of her campaign to bring accountability and rebuild the trust between government and Albertans that was seriously damaged or completely lost during the pandemic. There has been zero accountability for those in government and the bureaucracy even though the courts have ruled that the behavior of many breached the Public Health Act. This administration has also decided that politics instead of public safety is more important, and has to date allowed harmful experimental covid vaccines remain available to the public and even babies as young as 6 months. This tremendous failure by a Premier that jumped on the covid rage train when it best suited her but unfortunately disembarked before the train reached the station has allowed the frustrations and anger of 2021 & 2022 that turned many towards political activism to resurface. Many staunch conservatives feel disappointed, some even feel betrayed! The reality remains, there can be no CLOSURE until the concerns of the masses and the trauma and hurt of the covid years are properly addressed and dealt with.

Thank you, Brian & Carolyn Peckford! Your call this morning was encouraging, and your blog hits the mark. I have copied/pasted the article below. “Our legal system may find me/us guilty, but the legality and morality of our country are no longer aligned. “ This is a part of the statement by Marco Huigenbos of the Coutts three after being found guilty of mischief for behavior at the Alberta border during the Covid protests.   Mr. Huigenbos hits the nail squarely on the head———- This country through its so called legal system has ignored  the Charter of Rights and Freedoms opening words —‘ Whereas Canada is founded on principles that recognize the Supremacy of God and the Rule of Law ‘ and abused Section 1 of this same Charter by violating ‘ demonstrably justify’ and in ‘a free and democratic society ‘  and hence no longer has the decency or respect towards its people that is characteristic of a democratic nation.  Thousands have been injured and many hundreds dead as a result of Governments’ mandates and lockdowns and blatant coercion and lies to use experimental health damaging vaccines . Peoples rights and freedoms have been trampled on, and our Constitution destroyed.  These Coutts men are to be lauded for their courage, their faith  and their tenacity in the face of the country’s leadership , at all levels , that has lost its way. This present leadership  political , judicial in our country, at federal, provincial and municipal levels have abused the efforts our early 19 th century reformers who were fighting for our rights and freedoms and have insulted all those who fought for our country’s freedom in the great wars.  Mr. Huigenbos’s  wisdom shines forth today.
