This "wave" saw a much smaller crest of Hospitalizations than before. Today's numbers showed that only 42% of those Hospitalized "with" COVID are there "because of" COVID.

This all begs the question as to what benchmarks we would use to re-implement restrictions.

I'm hopeful for a DoFo re-election because I suspect Baldy with the Liberals will eagerly re-implement restrictions once petitioned by a handful of doctors.

Weird issue to be a single-issue voter on.

Early April, Del Duca does this big grandstanding thing about how Ford was literally murdering your grandma by removing mask mandates and vaccine mandates, accuses him of playing political games with people's lives. 

A couple of days later, we see these pictures from an Ontario Liberals rally, a jam packed indoors gathering with hundreds of people where nobody is wearing a mask or social distancing.

So who's really playing political games? If these people really thought lives were at risk, wouldn't somebody have been wearing a mask?

And, as "the sixth wave" tore through Ontario and resulted in BARELY OBSERVABLE impact on the healthcare system, the Ontario Liberals went from "Ford is playing GAMES with PEOPLE'S LIVES" to "let's talk about...  HANDGUNS".

I certainly get the argument that right-wing political parties have played political games with the pandemic.    But if you're going to tell me that their opponents aren't doing the same, I think the Del Duca Liberals are Exhibit A in the counter-argument.
