Dear Editor:
Well, if isn’t obvious by now, let me spell it out: both federal and provincial governments have blown it.
When aggressive testing and tracking were necessary to find and isolate COVID-19 cases quickly so that we wouldn’t be on the brink of collapsing our health care systems, both levels of government didn’t leave behind their politics and get the job done.
There has been seven months to get the job done and they failed. Instead of embracing conspiracies and trying to blow up the system like our friends south of the border, why not do something positive in reaction to their failure?
Search out a different political party instead of supporting either the Liberal or Conservative parties. Choose one that supports public services such as EMS, public health, and other dedicated public servants. Stop listening to these two parties that promise, promise, promise and now have failed us in the most critical time.
Remember when it’s time to vote how they both have failed us.
Thomas Althouse,
Fergus
