As of today, that's how many Canadians have actually had the needle poked into their arms. That's it! Apparently, vaccines are sitting in freezers rotting while....who knows what is happening with the "roll out".
After 10 months of "planning" -- TEN MONTHS -- it's a complete balls-up and everyone blames anyone and everyone else. My doctor has no idea when I might get a shot and B and I are in a priority age zone. This is a major disaster and lives will be lost. Hope ours aren't two of them, but who knows?! Just heard the president of Shopper's say that they are ready immediately to give two million vaccines a week across the country. Why the hell is that not happening?! They roll out the flu shot like clockwork every year, so just use the same template. I totally don't get it?!
And how about those multitudes of politicians who jetted off to sunny climes to work on their tans?! Kenney at first said he wasn't even going to sanction or chastise anyone. How dumb can you get?! Now he's demoted a few, but it's all too little too late. He should have demanded their resignations immediately. But he didn't because apparently he's very loyal to his people. In politics, as Kenney should know, after so many years mired in it, politics is a blood sport and he should have spilled a bunch a while ago.
Problem is he knew about their plans and so did Ford. Neither did anything about it. What happened to political instincts? After all my years in the Federal government, I've got them in spades and I immediately knew none of this would pass the smell test. Nevermind all the official jargon about guidelines and protocols and how these officials and ministers followed them. Forget about all that. This is political and Kenney's nose apparently wasn't working.
Oh, and while I'm on about percentages, I apparently have more Neanderthal DNA than 70% of other people. That explains a lot!
This isn't going away. It makes Redford's Sky Palace look like chicken feed.
