Alberta Premier Jason Kenney not self-isolating after premiers’ meeting with COVID-19 case connection

Premier Jason Kenney will not be isolating after a meeting with Quebec’s premier, who is currently self-isolating after coming into contact with a confirmed case of COVID-19, this week.The positive case is Conservative Leader Erin O’Toole, who got the news late Friday, hours after Bloc Quebecois Leader Yves-Francois Blanchet issued a statement that he, too, had tested positive.Kenney’s connection to O’Toole is due to the fact that he met with Ontario Premier Doug Ford, Manitoba Premier Brian Pallister and Quebec Premier Francois Legault on Friday.So far, none of the premiers at that meeting have symptoms, but Legault said late Friday that he had met with O’Toole earlier in the week and would be isolating and getting tested.

Doug Ford calls on Health Canada to focus on reviewing rapid COVID-19 antigen tests

COVID-19 antigen tests in the hope that one will be approved and used to alleviate the surging testing demand in the province.“That should be their number one priority,” Ford said.“I know Health Canada is doing a great job. They’re extremely, extremely busy but this should be the number one priority.”Ford made the remarks during a rare Saturday press conference in which he announced that new gathering restrictions would be expanded to the entire province amid a spike in coronavirus cases.
