please come to Ontario, we need people with brains not fear.

Good for you that's how it should be

And she will next announce defund the CTV.

Correct. It’s not their place actually

I always cheer when someone stands up to bullies, good for her.

Bravo, ABDanielleSmith ! At last, a Canadian premier with true integrity.

I wonder why CTV is so concerned about what Danielle is doing

Thank you Danielle Smith❤️

Let the professionals make health decisions.

Now this is good news.

Absolutely perfect!

Why schools have the right to infringe on their staff and students was beyond me!! Good for her!! That also includes libraries, restaurants, malls etc.. they can all take a hike

Masking is ineffective and damaging. Alberta's premier is correct. Stop the child abuse. CTV stop your horrible lies and fear mongering.

Good!

Good. No one should force any child to wear a disgusting contaminated piece of cloth or paper over their breathing. It's sick, wrong and harmful to the child.

Whoa. The truth.. slow down there cowboy

Good

Good

👏👏👏👏👏👍

HERO

No they should not. No mask mandates. Done. Don't like it, move to Ontario

This is the first time in a long that that you aren't ratio'd to hell eh CTV?

That’s amazing

Hope she gets it done.

Thank god.

Exactly!!! Never to mask no one again!!! Specially not kids!!!!!!

Well done Danielle!!! Enough with the tv scientists

Absolutely asinine idea, only a complete Dolt would want to impose such unrealistic nonsense! Used properly they work and prevent illnesses! That’s part of the reason we’ve had very few cases of flu over the last two years! Albertans need a premier with common sense!

I thought mandates were a provincial issue now outsiders are screaming the feds should step in 🤡🤡😂😂

So many people are going to get sick! Teachers should strike!

Good!

Thus is absolutely fantastic

No, Fire all the AHS senior civil servants for high treason.

….and if something 10 times more contagious or deadly comes out we will be helpless in preventing people from getting sick or dying. Where is her science supporting her statements and decisions?

A little sanity after all

Full support for Danielle Smith

Winning.

Thats great news!

Excellent! And if you're panicking about it, please feel free to wear a mask! Wear all of them. This is simply about not forcing everyone to do the same thing. (ICYMI, covid doesn't harm kids like the supposed authority figures claim.)

Children should not be raised in a mask

Fantastic news!

Completely agree with the premier.

daniellesmithnotmypremier

Good for her

Good, wish we had a premier with balls in Ontario.

ABDanielleSmith for Prime Minister.

Right! Make all your kids wear a mask and the corrupt albertateachers should mandate all teachers wear a mask. You DO NOT need the government to tell you what to do!

🤬

How is this a bad thing?

If you are too scared to go outside in a society without a mask then you should stay home and let the rest of us live like God intended ! FREE

Those who wish to impose mask mandates have not proven their case in the slightest. Time to end the nonsense. Kids have suffered enough because of inept adults.

Finally, a sensible politician amongst all the corrupt ones.

Schools don’t make masks mandatory, health units do. Alberta courts ruled that the decision should be up to health units already.

Good.

good.

Could it be keeping the mandates gets you voted out if office?

There is absolutely no reason why healthy people of any age should submit to vaccines and mask-wearing over a virus - particularly one that hasn't been proved to actually exist.

Good for ABDanielleSmith !!!! Restoring freedoms and individual rights is a great thing!!! If you want to wear a mask, go ahead! BUT no one should ever be forced to. This is 🇨🇦not 🇨🇳.

Good for her they know dam well that a diaper on your face will not protect you from any infection but rather make it worse

I see adults and kids walking by themselves in the fresh air with a dirty mask on. Why? All the mandates did was cause even more mental health issues, and it was all based on opinions, bought and paid for. Not science. TrudeauMustGo

She’s amazing. Albertans must have choice!

LindaLmchugh Love that woman!!!!!!!

Excellent. Thank you Daniel Smith.

All Canada supports her. You can cry your liberal eyes off She's doing great!

👍👍👏👏👏

Freedom!!! unless you disagree with the far right conspiracy theories and fuhrer Smith, then she'll change the law to force you to think her way.....lol such hypocrisy. abpoli ableg.

Smith will be a great Premier for AB!

Smartest premier in Canada

Finally, someone standing up to the child abuse! Go Danielle Smith, you have the majority cheering you on!

Wow she’ll just care for the selected few!

This is against CTV hegemony. It is against CTV orthodoxy. That’s because it allows for people to think for themselves. CTV demands strict adherence to its narrative. Just read All the same ideology. No free thought. That my friends is indeed the CTV.

Thank you Premier Smith!

Good!

fordnation should be more like Danielle Smith

There is a huge difference in saying prohibit and not making them mandatory. If you choose to wear one you can You report the news, why try to relay it correctly.

She is not stopping masking. She is stopping mandate. I will fully support it.

Good. Masking and what to put in your body should be a personal choice. Mandating it is unacceptable. I’m happy for Alberta. In ON we have a spineless Trudeau’s puppet, unfortunately.

❤️ Premier Smith ❤️

Good for her, masks don’t work anyway Omicron made that clear

GOOD! Let kids be kids. Enough with the woke agenda.

Good on her. Everybody has a right to choose without being punished for it. By the way, as more and more studies are coming to agreement, the vaccines don't do a damn thing. However, if you watch the gov't/pharma funded msm you would believe it is opposite.

Great news! Now let’s make this happen in Ontario!

Alberta's Premier is clearly in need of a mental health assessment!

There is no one in Academia who should be creating false health policies or even follow the WEF funded AHS's health policies.

💥👏

masking kids is child abuse

Good.

Masks could possibly help if kids wore them every second of the day. Taking them off at lunch negates any effect they have the rest of the day. Does the virus go on lunch break too?

Mandates work. We suggest mandating vacations for everyone's own good.

Best Premier in Canada!!

It should be up to the individual whether they wear a mask or not. Smith should stop being so dictatorial, and concentrate on meaningful things like being elected and NOT appointed.

We need her in Ontario

Premier is right!

Amazing

Schools making mandatory mask rules, Why and How? Where is the study, where is the science, where are the parents after 3 years, where is the outcry to this insane, barbaric, cruel and unusual punishment on children.

So people will have a choice whether to mask or not ✅

Great!

Show me the law that says you have to wear a mask

Good job ABDanielleSmith . She will get our vote EVERY TIME!

👏👏👏👏

Finally a real leader not a world economic forum puppet

Love how the media are using children to spin this because Danielle isn't ✔️ Liberal Approved ThankYouDanielle MediaLies

Every premier needs to do this!!!!

The rest of the Premiers should take note

Imagine NOT restricting the oxygen flow to a developing mind that is at almost NO RISK if it was infected. Which is what masks are for... sick people.

No sense in protecting the health of children! They might learn something, grow up and not vote for her!

This is awesome free choice for everyone! Those who want to wear them can and those who dont wont be forced to!

She's absolutely right. School boards should not be making medical dictates.

Great leadership by Smith !!

if the government can implement masks mandates surely the government can ban them, if you want your kids to wear masks in schools then so be it,

100% agree.

Love it

Look at the science...masks don't stop Covid, neither did social distancing or lockdowns. Wake up. The clot shots don't stop Covid either...but they do cause thousands of severe adverse affects.

Good

Good 👏👏👏 NoMaskMandates

Liberal funded media on the attack here

Masks should be optional, not banned and also not mandatory

Like a dictator!

Good

Nothing like making a public statement that you will absolutely not consider public health when the feelings of your donors are on the line. 🙄 Alberta is embarrassing.

She is fantastic!!

Kids where never in danger of Covid so masking was just cruel !!

Thank God. A premier to put an end to the nonsensical child abuse. Keep it choice. 💯

She’s right. And to everyone freaking out: YOU CAN SEND YOUR CHILD IN A MASK What you won’t be able to do is force your neighbours to mask their kids in school The rest of the world has moved on. Most never masked kids in the first place. Enough is enough. MOVE ON

Good.

Solid victory for the mental health of children.

We live with viruses every day and we never had to wear a mask. So many people wore masks in planes and came back with covid. Stop freaking out because she is thinking of the kids in all this!

👏👏👏 ya for bodily autonomy!!! How many of you have convinced yourselves that forcing others to wear a marginally effective piece of ppe to protect against a virus strain currently comparable in risk to a typical flu, especially to children, and call it virtue is beyond me.

She is absolutely correct!

OurMissBattie is ViciouslyStupid

Bravo ABDanielleSmith School Boards shouldn’t be mandating health decisions.

Awesome! Pravda

Excellent news. Masks should not be mandated. Freedom!

👏🏻👏🏻

Absolutely..

BestPremierEver

To all those upset by this, you can still wear a mask! It’s about not forcing everyone to do the same.

Glad she’s following the science and not the “speed of science”.

She doesn't have the legal right to do that

It is a cold/flu at this point in mutation. So stop the silliness of making like your going to die.

finally, great news by fake news

Better ventilation should be more important than wearing a mask

Great news

I'm with her great leader I wish Ontario had guts but here so weak

she doesn't have the power to.chamge the laws. lol that's not up to her amd her ego

Aren’t there more important concerns for AB then making “laws” to limit resources of public health IF required again during a crisis or pandemic? How about a law mandating our schools have the healthiest environment to learn in…including heating, cooling AND filtration systems

Most excellent. Should be solely up to parents &/ students.

See kids, this is what happens when you sleep thru science class. You may become a ignorant adult and make arrogant dangerous decisions that others like you find brilliant. NotMyPremier ucp berta Alberta Covid covid19ab CovidIsNotOver

I didn't know our Premier was an expert in public health policy. When did she get her medical license?

Doesn't trust experts. What does she know of medicine, public health, epidemiology, risk mitigation, health care crisis. Absurd - we need health care not health politics DS - a near and present danger. How much destruction can she create before an election?

So no to Freedom then !

Thankfully teaching and learning are based on communication and masks impede communication

What a waste of everybody’s time smith and the ucp are. Govern the freaking province! Stop with this ridiculous political BS. Nobody gives a rats ass. Albertans are trying to scratch out a living.

DS must GO!

GOOD !!!!!!!

Did she say kids cannot wear masks? Did I miss that? What’s wrong with you people? Wear a mask, send your children to school with a mask if you feel like it. And if you feel it’s too dangerous stay home.

so Drumpielle want to remove more freedom from school and parents. and stop them from making a science based decision to help kids. what is she going to do if polio starts spreading in AB schools? will she take responsibility?

Great news.

Thank you Danielle Smith!

Thank goodness, They don’t work!

👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍

And? Wear a mask if you wish.

Alberta needs to see UCPCaucus MLA'S with a conscience or backbone step up for the people of Alberta. Vaccinations & masks save lives. Over 5,000 DEATHS from Covid-19 in Alberta Each one with family & loved ones. Speak up Alberta! Lives are at risk!

Good.

Maybe because...👇

Awesome! Crimes against our kids must end and your precious health fascism is over in Alberta.
