Alberta Premier Jason Kenney is condemning planned protests at hospitals in Edmonton and Calgary on Monday by an anti-mandatory vaccination group.
Canadian Frontline Nurses is planning protests at the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Edmonton and Foothills hospital in Calgary.
In a statement posted online, Kenney said peaceful protests are a constitutional right but they also have limits.
"Today's protests must in no way obstruct the important operations of our hospitals, including the arrival and departure of emergency vehicles and workers. Blocking an ambulance is most definitely not peaceful protest," he said.
"In Alberta, local law enforcement is fully empowered to enforce the law in a timely fashion, including the potential use of the Critical Infrastructure Defence Act."

The act, passed in the spring of 2020, allows fines to be levied against any person or company found to have blocked, damaged or entered without reason any "essential infrastructure."
The bill was passed in response to blockades of rail lines in January 2020.
Alex Puddifant, press secretary to Justice Minister Kaycee Madu, told Radio Canada Monday that while hospitals are not explicitly mentioned in the bill, blocking a highway or public road in front of a hospital would be prohibited.
Protesters found to have violated the act face fines up to $25,000 and six months in jail.

medical staff in ny quit due to federal 3rd shot mandate for healthcare workers by end of october. they opined that if 2 shots so far have prevented breakthru cases from getting severely sick, why all healthcare workers must get 3rd shot when they are already 100% vaccinated. if (fully vaccinated) healthcare workers including doctors are walking out en masse in protest against a booster mandate, sum ting wong with it being “science-based”? medical professionals losing confidence in vaccine solutions?

College should revoke all their medical licences! This is clear case of putting profession in disrepute!

WTF is the licensing body doing?

report in stat says that a lancet paper published by outgoing fda officials and authored by gruber and krause [who also reviewed and approved the 3 vaccines (pfizer, moderna, j&j) for emergency use] do not agree that booster shots should be used on general population so soon as they think it’s kneejerk reaction to delta variant and will result in disappointment. if booster fails in protection against not just delta but newer variants not fully tested with booster formulation, it will be a complete collapse of confidence not just in the boosters but also vaccines in general. they say it’s better to wait and see for current 1-shot and 2-shot vaccines to work their way into herd immunity.

Seriously, the reason why all the medical colleges have this "do not disparage your colleagues in public" or "do not say or do anything to put the profession in disrepute" is because we need to keep quiet and have a united front in order to maintain trust from the public.

The truth is many facets of medicine have many controversies. We dont argue these in public.

I don't know why they started allowing people like Dr Oz to go on TV and talk all those other things without penalties?

See now? It is a mess.

The regulatory body has lost control.

@eatshitndie

did you see this thread I started?

Sounds to me the CPSA lost control liao. The registrar writing letter to us to beg us to stop? WTF?

Just go and summon up all these jokers who are breaking the rules and discipline them. All of them.

Damn rubbish lah. Yeah when go after individual doctors over small stupid nonsense complaints from patients very easy right?

All the talk about "developing good communication skills" is garbage.

Truth is when there is a difference in opinion, CPSA has always sided with the patient. Drs opinion is not the main thing.

So now we have the situation where Drs keep quiet. And the patients say a lot of things. And drs dont dare to refute them.

it’s now regulatory bodies contradicting one another. cdc vs. fda vs. niaid. worse, w.h.o. has jumped into the fray, siding with dr. gruber and dr. krause by endorsing the paper and urging cuntries not to administer booster shots to the general population. those immune-compromised and susceptible to severity and death by delta, ok. but not general population. so much mess and confusion. but i believe sg will follow who not us cdc.
