TORIES HARRASS TAM
Tam has lost trust of Canadians, say  Conservative MPs
WE TRUST HER MORE THAN TORIES
OR DANIELLE SMITH
Postmedia News - Toronto Sun

Chief Public Health Officer Theresa Tam listens to a question during a news conference on Jan. 5, 2021 in Ottawa.

Canada’s top doctor does not have the trust of Canadians when it comes to COVID-19.

So say Commons health committee MPs, who told Dr. Theresa Tam, the country’s chief public health officer, it will not blindly follow the advice of her Public Health Agency, according to Blacklock’s Reporter .

To back that up, Conservative MP Matt Jeneroux (Edmonton Riverbend) read a string of Tam’s incorrect statements made about COVID-19 early in the pandemic into the record.

“Hindsight is 20-20,” said Tam. “Information and the evolution of the understanding of the virus was changing all the time. We need to have humility in the face of these viruses for sure. I am sure there’s a lot we can do.”

Conservative MP Randy Hoback (Prince Albert, Sask.) said constituents became frustrated by PHA advice said to be based on science given it occasionally contradicted that of Saskatchewan’s own chief medical health officer Dr. Saqib Shahab.
TOO BAD MOE DID NOT LISTEN

“What is your plan to build back that trust?” asked Hoback.

“This is really important and this is why we must come together and work together and earn that trust,” replied Tam.

Added Jeneroux: “Is the Public Health Agency and Health Canada planning to conduct a full review and report on the handling of COVID?”

“That decision is not up to me,” replied Tam.
