My 87 year old mother called me to tell me she had an off phone call today from
Save-On-Foods pharmacy. They told her they were offering a $300 vaxx to her age group for FREE. WOOHOO free stuff. I am glad she called me because firstly, she had no idea what they would be vaccinating her for (she is currently sick with some sort of respiratory illness) and secondly wasn’t sure if she already had a shot. I called Save On to see what they were offering (haven’t heard back yet) so I checked online and it’s the RSV shot, something she doesn’t need because she has probably had it and has antibodies and secondly she’s sick so NO. She says “but it’s a good deal, FREE. After all we have been through, after all the illness and deaths she was still thinking about it, unbelievable. I told her if she’s currently sick with RSV and gets a shot it could kill, her a lie I know but what the hell. you never know. She’s not getting the free shot but I’m thinking it’s going to expire soon and they have to get it into arms to have it covered by Heath Canada.

Spent the day in Alberta's mountains.
Had tea overlooking a sublime view of glaciers, the Bow Valley, and Lake Louise. It was great, after getting some altitude and above the Lake, which was absolutely PACKED with foreigners.
Parking was impossible, so even the access roads were lined with wandering non-citizens abusing Mark Carney's Canada Strong Pass. It should be called India's All-Access Pass. Local Albertans can't use their own damn park, let alone other Canadians. Parking for Canadians was $40. FOURTY. It was free for the bus loads of non-Canadians.
To make matters worse, the abuse of the natural environment was unreal. Garbage in the trees. People ripping tree branches down to use as walking sticks. People screaming into a livestream on a quiet forest trail to their family back home.
America charges foreigners to go to Yellowstone and Yosemite. I can see why.
Total disrespect for the most beautiful place on earth, and for the taxpayers that pay to keep it ...
