In the aftermath of the article was published and was viewed tens of thousands of times the hashtag #ThankYiu was spawned by those supporting Dr. Yiu. Nobody seemed to actually attempt to explain/justify why her statements during the September 23 press conference were contradicted by AHS data.
Alberta Health Service CEO Dr. Verna Yiu during a COVID-19 press conference on September 23 made multiple claims about hospital capacity that could be classified as misinformation based on AHS data showing the narrative that hospitals could be overwhelmed is heavily exaggerated and potentially outright false.
In the wake of Erin O’Toole’s election failure there is a miniature war being fought within the Conservative party over the future of their leader. This is nothing new for the CPC as the same thing happened when Andrew Scheer failed to oust Trudeau in 2019. There was a clearly coordinated effort behind getting rid […]
O’Toole failed to bring many Liberals to the Conservative side while alienating many Conservative voters who then either stayed home or voted for the PPC. O’Toole had even said before and during the election that he did not want people to support the Conservative Party if they disagreed with him on certain issues surrounding social policy and public health mandates. Not much of a mystery why some chose not to vote for the CPC this election.
While the election still isn’t over; Trudeau and the Liberals are definitely having a bad campaign and it was a mistake to call an election now.

The leader of the People’s Party of Canada Maxime Bernier may be the only candidate for the party that has a solid shot at winning a seat during the 2021 snap election, but that doesn’t mean the PPC isn’t having a permanent effect on Canadian politics.
The Peoples’ Party of Canada may not gain a seat in this election, but they might not need one to achieve a significant victory. There are multiple scenarios in which the PPC could come away from this vote in a much stronger position to affect Canadian politics going forward.
