Public safety?

Isn't Bill Blair the minister of public "safety"?  So, why is he neither seen, nor heard from while Rome burns on the west coast?  Actually, he is now called the minister of emergency preparedness -- an even worse moniker for how abominably he has performed.  The guy should put his fiddle down and get his a-- to what was formerly Lotus Land because the public is definitely not safe there and by all accounts there seems to be an emergency unfolding.  And, while I'm at it, why isn't RCMP chief Lucki there too?  Her job is also to protect the public.  Sadly, she doesn't do it.  Remember the shootings in Nova Scotia?  Exactly.

If ever there was a time for ensuring public safety it's right now.  And why is our feckless, good-for-nothing PM pathetically wandering around Washington with Freeland in tow begging for crumbs and trying to muscle Biden into flipping his entire political agenda?  Trudeau should also be in BC -- not groveling south of the border.  And hey, with water levels at record peaks, he could even get a little surfing in while he's there.

And here's something I couldn't believe when I heard it this morning, apparently the warning alert system -- so expensively built in BC -- has never, ever, ever been triggered!  Not even now, while the province disappears under the waves.  Come to think of it, we get lots of warnings and tests here in Alberta, but never an actual alert -- not even when fires ravaged Fort MacMurray.  Of course, it's all about money because when you activate alerts, you have to deploy stuff.  That costs money, so it doesn't happen.   

We elect these people, so we deserve the swill they serve us.  But if I could find someone who admitted to having voted for the bum, I would give him/her a piece of my mind.  Reminds me of the Rae days in Ontario, where in spite of having a majority, no one ever admitted they had put their X beside his name.
