Alberta’s premier is selling his ambitious “open for summer” three-stage plan to end pandemic restrictions. Jason Kenney says if Alberta meets vaccine and hospital targets all COVID-19 measures could be lifted by the end of June. That means no limits on indoor social gatherings and sports activities, and the return of the Calgary Stampede. Businesses are hopeful. But some doctors are calling the plan risky and reckless because it moves too fast. And what about the Allan inquiry? Guest host Jim Brown looks at the politics and the premier’s efforts to get ahead of the pandemic with communications specialist Corey Hogan of The Strategists podcast, former director of communications for Rachel Notley, Leah Ward of Metric Strategies, and former UCP president Erika Barootes of Enterprise Canada.
