Premier Smith refuses to recommend masks in Alberta schools

Instead of recommending masking, Smith said her government is focused on supporting pharmacies in getting supplies of children’s pain and fever medication, and addressing hospital wait times.

Wear one if you want, and leave the rest of us alone.

Any nation that gives up freedom for fear of health in the end will have neither.

[passionparade]

Wow. I rational voice. If your kids are sick keep them at home. To imagine common sense is extremism today.

[colcol]

Why cant she be the Premier of Ontario! Doug, take a couple of lessons from her. Please!

[Tina-tzud]

Maybe Ford in Ontario will wake up and start standing up for the people of Ontario! Or a lot of us may be moving to Alberta

[BloodandSoilNS]

I love that. "We will not let this become the new normal". Danielle is taking on the world at this point.

[masonwilcox]

This is an outrage!!!! We need more government control, not personal

[lizzardbits]

Why don't journalists report what is actually happening instead of sensationalizing every single thing. Unbiased? 😖

[allenleclerc]

BC resident... I can't stand my government. So jealous.

[lecatnegro]

Wheres the petition to make her prime Minister

[mrs.mcnamara]

Good! We need more leaders like Smith.

[twinflamecreators]

GOOD, GREAT, FREAKIN FANTASTIC... JUST SAY NO.

[tracer]

THank you for standing up for Albertans freedoms and stopping with the fear mongering agenda. If your so afraid YOU wear the mask. Leave the rest of us alone

[donnacabot]

Leave it to the school board. Ya wanna wear one, then wear one. If not move on already.

Alternative Title: Premier allows the people to make their own choice.

[kevinleblanc]

So do we get to sue you when are kids get sick and in Ontario Surgery's are being canceled because the hospitals are overwhelmed your being very irresponsible and

[oucherspace]

YEESSS!!!! LET IT BE AN OPTION! not a mandate!!

[sherylturnerturner]

If people just look at Sweden who imposed NO mandates, they came out of this much better than the non-scientific strong arm Canada took. Thanks Danielle.

[tommytwotones]

I used to deliver the Edmonton Urinal. Now I wouldn't use it, even to wipe. True story.

[mackdaddy.]
