We review the Feb 11 speech by Ontario Premier Doug Ford in which he declares a State of Emergency to deal with the trucker vaccine mandate protests. Like the Prime Minister, Ford uses lies and threats to make his case against peaceful protestors while attempting to gaslight the Canadian public into thinking these truckers are criminals. Also, John exposes CBC bias in an article which claims to refute Saskatchewan Premier Moe's statement that the vaccines do not prevent the spread of omicron, but the quotes from "experts" actually support Premier Moe’s position.
