Canadians culturally are just not productive details people. There are things we are world class at, emergency response isn't one of them. It's not our wheelhouse. It stems right from our 2nd rate elite and rolls down from there.
Why? It's what we value and don't value and situations like this just manifest themselves
Journalists mainly criticize government ministers and ADMs because they aren't competent to criticize us deep-staters that mostly ignore them and do the jobs we've always done (retired; I was in Calgary Waterworks, which merged with Sewer and Drainage about ten years before the 2013 Flood).
The high-level steering decisions are the thinnest pondscum on the surface of the government waters. I see criticism of the one thing really up to politicians - the foreign-relations nightmare of border control - but the overall pandemic "flop" still involves a lower deaths-per-capita than anywhere in Europe except Denmark, Norway, and Finland. We're more vaccinated than most, as well, despite the anti-vax poison spewed into our televisions by American cable news, which of course has three times our death rate. Are 500,000 Americans dead because they don't have Canada's government, or are 50,000 Canadians alive because we didn't have Americas? Same question, two viewpoints.
The government has done pretty well, and is doing pretty well. Also with the Flood. Claiming that a few hundred military are "bailing out" the thousands of muncipal-level and provincial-level BC workers that are doing the enormous lion's share is...well, it's typical journalism, come to think of it. Why not throw in an editorial cartoon of us leaning on our shovels?
Pathetic BS. 20 months on and you have this summary of events and "insights"? I'm tempted to cancel the crummy $5 paid for this channel yet I'd miss my periodic amusement of the line dot ca elbow on the pulse of comments of events.
At this rate, Canada's borders will look more like they did in 1866 than what we currently believe them to be. The US, China and Russia will carve up Canada with the permission of the UN and we will be unable to stop it from happening...

You took your family out of the country in March 2020 & you are blaming the federal gov't for not telling you what to do?

Pathetic. 20 months on and you have this summary of events? Try harder.
