It’s been a year since COVID-19 was labelled a pandemic, lockdown measures became the norm and the terms social-distancing, contact tracing and flattening the curve became part of the global language.
Pandemic fatigue has set in for many, exhausted by stress and anxiety and feeling isolated from friends and family.
And while there have been glimmers of hope that 2021 might bring a relaxation of health regulations and a return to a kind of normalcy for parts of the economy, some believe this pandemic and its legacy will be with us for a very long time.
Conservatives hide from questions about hiring former Huawei exec
Have you heard of the Epoch Times? They are a relatively new player in the Canadian media landscape, having increased their print and online distribution over the last half decade. In all likelihood, you have read their work — despite the Canadian government scrambling to stop them.
See, the Epoch Times is staunchly anti-Communist China, and that infuriates many pro-China institutions in Canada, including the Liberal government, radical union workers, postal workers who refuse to deliver the paper and a surprising new opponent: the Conservative opposition to Trudeau.
I am not kidding. Conservative leader Erin O’Toole handily won his post on a strong anti-China platform, but since headhunting the vice president of Huawei Canada for a top position, the Conservative Party has been compromised.
Ontarians’ mental health continues to decline as lockdowns persist: poll

The new polling conducted by the Ontario branch of CMHA found that only 35% of Ontarians said their mental health was “very good” or “excellent” compared to 52% in May 2020.
“It’s very worrying to see the trend lines on the mental health of Ontarians decreasing as significantly as they have since our last poll,” said CMHA CEO Camille Quenneville.
“As service providers, it’s very alarming to think about what we’ll need to do to support the population. The service demands will be very significant.”

While Democrats aim to eliminate voter ID laws under the 800-page election bill H.R. 1, also known as the “For the People Act,” they contrarily flirt with the idea of mandating citizens show proof of COVID-19 vaccine or testing results.
According to H.R. 1, states are to be prohibited from requiring voter identification, including things like witness signatures, and notary stamps. This would ultimately overturn laws in 36 states, as noted by the National Conference of State Legislatures.

When CBC requested the modelling from the Department of Health and Community Services, they were denied based on cabinet confidentiality.
School districts across the country have adopted Marxist critical race theory, but few have done so to the degree of Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS) in the Washington, D.C, suburbs of northern Virginia.
