A Global News Investigation Misses the Mark
COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Testing of Asymptomatic People was a Debacle for the Ages
Conclusions
The rapid antigen tests were reasonably accurate in identifying people that had COVID-19 and differentiating them from people that were at no risk of spreading above-threshold doses of SARS-CoV-2 to others.
Diagnostic tests to be administered by health professionals to sick people should NEVER have been used, let alone self-administered, to screen healthy people.
Companies, including the manufacturers, suppliers, and testing centres made massive profits, and billions of taxpayer dollars were completely wasted by the government on a strategy that had no public health value.
The grand debacle of COVID-19 rapid antigen testing suggests that too many health care practitioners are functioning at a level that makes artificial intelligence-based medicine start to look dangerously appealing. Medical educators need to do a much better job of teaching what constitutes a diseased state and how to properly diagnosis it. If PCR machines are going to be allowed to take over the job of making definitive diagnoses, then many physicians will no longer be needed.
The practitioners that are being driven out of our health care system for boldly speaking scientific truths over the past few years are the ones that we desperately need to retain if we are going to have any chance of maintaining a system that genuinely cares about the promotion of good health.
And for organizations like Global News, you need to figure out how to conduct true investigative journalism, rather than wasting time on largely irrelevant and distractive tangents.

Berta Dad nailed it. Copied from FB.
Jeff Rath’s behaviour toward Danielle Smith is not a good look for this movement, and he does not speak for me.
When this started, I had respect for him. But as this has played out, it has become harder to ignore what appears to be a push for power inside the movement, not a sincere focus on Alberta independence.
Danielle Smith is a major reason Albertans were even able to collect signatures in the first place. Compared to any other premier in this country, I believe she has been the strongest one standing up for her province.
I will not forget her accomplishments.
She stood up for parental rights when others wanted schools keeping parents in the dark.
She took action against political ideology being pushed in classrooms.
She made sure kids got back to school when the system tried to hold families hostage.
She has strengthened Alberta Sheriffs and continued exploring ways to free Alberta from relying on the RCMP.
And that is only part of it.

WEF/UN/Globalists have proven they can’t be trusted now given the key to Canada. Are you awake yet Canadians??
REPORT: UN Climate Scientists Flip on the Climate Doomsday Narrative | Stand on Guard CLIP
WATCH Have they been lying about climate change this whole time? Are they cancelling climate change doomsday scenario for the data centers?
The UN climate scientists admit the high emission doomsday scenarios were overblown. UN climate change scientists flip: climate change not too bad anymore according to a new report. No doomsday on the horizon.
On this Stand on Guard clip, we question why the UN might be backtracking on previous dire predictions, suggesting a new agenda at play. We examine how this shift could be tied to the proliferation of data center construction and the increasing demands on our power grid from artificial intelligence. It's crucial to consider the broader implications for our communities and hold big tech accountable.
