CALGARY - Alberta Premier Jason Kenney says he won’t “take lectures” from federal Health Minister Patty Hajdu on how to handle COVID-19. He said the federal government should respect the advice of Alberta’s top doctor, as his government does. Organizers said they will continue to protest every day until Aug. 16 – the day quarantine requirements lift in Alberta for people infected with COVID-19. Alberta also had the highest active case count in all of Canada, according to federal data. Hinshaw said the modelling suggests cases will rise for a month but will have a limited impact on the province’s acute care system.
