SteynOnAlberta (again)

The U.K. is again restricting citizen's freedoms because of a "dangerous new variant". Mark Steyn is on the case, with an en passant dig at Jason Kenney.

It is for your sake, Comrades, that California's Gavin Newsom chows down at the French Laundry and Alberta's Jason Kenney dines on rooftop patios.

Politics doesn't seem terribly relevant to this new world: Newsom (La-La-Land leftie) and Kenney (rock-ribbed oil-sands Tory) are ostensibly polar opposites, splendid examples of the grand variety of democratic choice. And yet, mysteriously, their Covid regimes are all but indistinguishable.
