‘Are we in trouble? Absolutely’: Alberta battles worst Covid rate in North America

Wow, this is pretty bad, Alberta has the worse covid infection rate in North America. My brother and his family live in Edmonton, so I follow Alberta closely.

I also have a brother and his family in northern Ontario (Manitoulin Islands), adult nephews and nieces and their families in Toronto, a sister and her family and lots of cousins in Nova Scotia and a sister and her family and lots of cousins in Prince Edward Island. So really appreciate all the updates here that Canadians are posting.

We postponed our summer 2020 family reunions in Nova Scotia and PEI, and up until a few months ago, our relatives in the maritime provinces still wanted to have it this summer, but not now. Hoping that we can do something virtual again this year, and really hoping for summer 2022 in-person.

FOR EMERGENCY USE, ONLY

We took it on the chin
The numbers were so grim
Bossed around by pricks
Stiffen upper lips
Yeah
Pacing in the yard
You're trying to take the mick
You must think I'm really thick
Looking at the graphs with a magnifying glass
Cancel all the tours, football's fake applause
Yeah
No more travel brochures
Virtual premieres, I've got nothing left to wear
Looking out from these prison walls
You got to rob Peter if you're paying Paul
But it's easy, easy
Everything's gonna get really freaky
Alright on the night
Soon it'll be be a memory you're trying to remember to forget
That's a pretty mask
But never take a chance
Tiktok stupid dance
Took a samba class
Yeah, I landed on my *advertiser censored*
Trying to write a tune, you better hook me up to Zoom
See my poncey books, teach myself to cook
Way too much TV, it's lobotomizing me
Yeah, think I've put on weight
I'll have another drink then I'll clean the kitchen sink
We escaped from the prison walls
Open the windows and open the doors
But it's easy, easy
Everything's gonna get really freaky
Alright on the night
It's gonna be a garden of earthly delights
Yeah, it's easy sleazy
Everything's smooth and greasy
Yeah easy, believe me
It'll only be a memory you're trying to remember to forget
Shooting the vaccine
Bill Gates is in my bloodstream
It's mind control
The Earth is flat and cold
It's never warming up
The Arctic's turned to slush
The seconds coming late
And there's aliens in the deep state
Now we're out of these prison walls
You gotta pay Peter if you're robbing Paul
But it's easy, easy
Everything's gonna be really freaky
Alright on the night
We're all headed back to paradise
Yeah, easy, believe me
It'll be a memory you're trying to remember to forget
Easy, cheesy
Everybody sing please, please me
Yeah
It'll be a memory you're trying to remember to forget
