Here is what he had to say about the drink fests he hosted during Covid-19 lockdowns.

Oh, The Insensate Crowd

While we can take some comfort that the kind of madness that grips the United States is absent in Canada, we would be wrong to think there aren't seeds of it here:

 Toronto police have arrested three participants in two separate anti-lockdown protests downtown Saturday afternoon, the same day the province saw 3,056 new COVID-19 cases and a record number of 420 patients in intensive care units.

Videos surfacing on social media show hundreds of protestors gathered at Nathan Phillips Square and Yonge-Dundas Square defying public health measures and denouncing the provincial stay-at-home mandate.

Below is one sample of the insensate crowd, mostly unmasked and gathered closely together to protest the abrogation of their 'freedom' to spread disease.
