Sarnia-Lambton MP says ‘we need to get back to work’ (AUDIO)
Sarnia-Lambton's MP wants Canada to implement COVID-19 cures she claims have been proven in the United States, but are opposed by Canadian health experts.blackburnnews.com
Yikes! We have a wingnut!
The most disturbing thing to me is actually the mis-statement/ignorance about a 'cure' or treatments which is just plain wrong.
She's not inaccurate that more people are still dying from cancer that's true; but not, unto itself a justification for reopening the economy.
You can say true things and then draw completely erroneous conclusions.
The double-whammy here is that she starts by saying things that are demonstrably untrue; then offers a mix of things that are and aren't, then draws a conclusion based on erroneous evidence which is in-turn problematic to put it charitably.
Stuff like this drives me nuts; because I think there is an intelligent conversation to be had about what markers we will use for reopening the economy, at what pace, and subject to what conditions.
But you can't have that intelligent conversation when you start with falsehoods and idiocy.
Hint to Conservatives: If you wish to thoughtfully advocate for improved public policy, do not do your research by watching Fox News.
