“I have no shame in pleading to the public” – Sask Chief Public Health Officer Gets Emotional

I don’t think Scott Moe has the emotional maturity and empathy to speak like this… Moe does, however, has the ability to turn Saskatchewan into a dystopian nightmare… Several of my patients were selected for evacuation to Ontario this week.

One of Saskatchewan’s Highest Profile Anti-Vaxxers & Former PPC Candidate Rumoured To Be In Saskatoon Covid Ward

But I don’t think he qualifies for the Herman Cain Award…yet. I want ZERO Saskatchewan residents to die from covid. Pro-vax, anti-vax, young or old. Perfect health or numerous comorbidities, it's a gruesome way to suffer and die. My condolences to @MarkFriesen08 as I've verified someone with his name is at RUH. — Kyle Anderson […]
