FUREY: Canada made pandemic playbooks — and we’re not following them

It’s quite something to look back and see what Canada’s response to a pandemic was supposed to be and then compare it to what we’ve actually being doing to deal with COVID-19.

There’s one recurring theme that comes across when you study the various pandemic preparedness documents that have been put together by different levels of governments in recent years: It’s that they all anticipate a situation worse than the one that is currently unfolding, but they call for less restrictive measures than the ones that have now been enacted.

Why are the Democrats Acting So Guilty?

Now that we’ve reached the post-inauguration stage of our peaceful transition of power, one person in America needs a full audit of the election more than anyone — President Asterisk. How can the Harris/Biden administration effectively govern when nearly half of their constituents question the election?

They need legislation to achieve permanence in their policies. That legislation is not possible without the consent of the governed — unless they consider our consent an obsolete notion from an irrelevant Constitution.

Will a Hard-Left Turn Lead to Pushback?

When Biden made a Faustian bargain with his party’s hard-left wing of Bernie Sanders, Kamala Harris, Elizabeth Warren, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to win the election, he took on the commitment to absorb some of their agenda and to appoint their ideologues.
