The covid testing center was terrifying to say the least.
I arrived to find three security guards outside, one on the door and one to hand out masks. Once inside there was yet another guard. They do not have that many guards for their health. Inside, they have signs not to use your cell phone. Why? So, you cannot secretly photograph the place to plan an attack. You don’t pay that many guards to stand around looking pretty. You pay them for protection and security. From whom? Antivaxxers? Anti-Maskers? Nut cases in general.
It is not enough that you see many nurses, mostly female, standing there to take your test to help protect you. This alone is super dangerous. Yet they do it. Risk their lives to fight an epidemic, and now they have to risk their lives in case the local nut cases come to attack them? It is overwhelming to see the security on what should be a scary medical issue, not a scary armed standoff.
I know, they are merely preparing for the worst. The fact that there is something worse than getting covid is, in itself, insane.
During the assault on the American capital, the young people, the interns and newly hired showed the older people where to hide and how to hide. They basically took care of their bosses to prevent tragedy. How did they know what to do or where to go? They have lived through the school shooting era. They learned the drills in class on what to do with an active shooter. Now, we have to teach this to nurses who are trying to save lives. This is truly insane.

Mr. Premier, Scott Moe

Can we not agree that idiots who protested in front of the home of Dr. Saqib Shahab are, wishful thinking, imports from the dysfunctional USA?

Can we not agree that doctors and scientist working to save lives, and by now with all the dead around us, that is what they are doing, fighting a losing battle, saving as many fellow Canadian’s lives, as humanly possible, that those men and women are working on our behalf and should be treated as a Banksy’s superheroes?

Can we not have the decency as a community, as a society as a province, to protect the chief medical officer whose only crime was to have done his job trying his best to save as many lives as he can?
Clearly, yesterday’s events have shown we cannot do any of these things. That is the sad reality that we live in. We are fighting two pandemics, one is Covid 19, the other is nasty, brutish, stupidity, such that we have not seen the likes of in generations. That has come from the roots of ignorance, hatred, stupidity and more. That we cannot endure if we are to battle this disease to the finish line.

The Barbarians who stormed the American Capitol, who spirit is seen in the Qanon conspiracy, (all in clear need of mental health care), the anti-mask, anti-lockdown, anti-anything, that might help save our lives, arrived in Saskatchewan yesterday. It has been here a long time, true be told but afraid to rear its ugly head. This cracker’s Kraken must be meet by an even greater response, police, prosecution and deterrence that protect our doctors, our scientists and out government.

It is not enough to shame them; they have no shame. It is not enough to expose them; they have no vested interest in the community. These people exist on the fringe with no connection to the people. They think they are on a mission from some deity known only to them, understood only by them and followed only by a small minority of fanatical followers.

The response, our response, the people’s response to this must be loud and clear so that there is no mistaken gesture of sympathy, there is no support and there will be no quarter given to them for this.

Mr. Premiere protect our doctors.

Mr. Premiere protect our scientist.

Mr. Premiere protect us from the spread of this disease; from the spread of both diseases, covid 19 and stupidity.

Thank you.
