Waste of tax payers $$$

The covid alert app does not even work in Alberta!!!!!

If vaccines work so well they can be mandated, why do you have to wear a mask if you’ve been vaccinated? Have you seen any reports of deaths due to vaccines in any mainstream media? Not only are eyes blind, their heart are also blind! They have lost their conscience!

Ryan Reynolds lives in the US and has waited out the pandemic there. He wouldn’t have a Canadian COVID Alert app so the claim that to have it would make one just like him is ridiculous.

GovCanHealth should just make it mandatory for use then. I deleted it because only 5% of people who tested positive were using it. It was a useless waste of tax payer dollars.

I'm a heterosexual man but even I know this guy is good looking

LOL. Celebrity endorsement must be for a focus audience. The average Canadian couldn't care less.

Give me money Ryan and then I'll download it.

'Trust the science' has become 'listen to celebrities'. Yet we criticize people who question the vaccine for 'getting their information from Facebook'.
