Amazing work my fellow Canadian!

I noticed the exact same thing myself when I check the numbers yesterday. I went onto the Wayback machine website to grab a before picture from Jan 20, then the latest numbers from Jan 24 to compare them.

Later on yesterday the numbers changed back to where you would expect them to be. They seem to be back in line today as well.

So maybe someone just hit the post button too soon before that last calculation was done? It really makes you wonder what's going on behind the scenes though!

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who caught that.

Lucky you to get any data this past week. I keep checking and nothing.

I have been collecting data from the AB website since April 2020. Drives me batty that they cannot get one person to do at least some data over weekends. It means I have to calculate hospital admissions instead of taking them off the Severe Outcomes chart. It also drives me batty how often they change their numbers. I am now doing comparisons by downloading from Internet Wayback machine. I recently looked at total deaths for 2020 and the age group 20-40 was up over 45% in one year.

Wow. Sounds like you have at least one article to write. Please do. It's important. Include me in your distribution list.

[Oops - I was wrong (I had selected a subset of the data.) I'll leave my original comment, but it doesn't actually apply.]

BC's Covid data seem to have undergone a similar manipulation. I haven't analysed it nearly as in-depth as you've done, but last I checked, per capita cases among the doubly vaxxed were slightly higher than per capita cases among the unvaxxed. Today, the curves look entirely different.

My theory is this: they've added everyone 5+ to all data sets, but because there's no such thing as a fully vaxxed 5yo, so they all show up as unvaxxed. I wonder if Alberta did the same, and added the 5-11 population retroactively (without telling us).

(I'm trying to be generous here, btw. I now believe the manipulations in service of the Holy Narrative will from continue to mount.)

Interesting that BC did the same thing. Today I see that Alberta walked back their change and a friend posted a screen capture of the Alberta.ca site from last night saying it was due to technical issues. I'll post another brief article saying that.

Have you politely contacted them and asked to talk to the person who produces the data and then, when you access that person, explain to them your situation, and ask them what’s going on?

Yes, I have contacted them...tried to at least. But they just do not respond. It is possible my emails go to a spam folder or something. I do not know. What I do know is they just never respond.

Lawsuits work, especially large class-action lawsuits filed on a contingency-fee basis.

Phone calls may work?

does canada have FOIA requests? do they carry more weight than a phone call or an email?

Yes. I understand they are so resource intensive that only a law firm or major media outlet bothers. (I may well be wrong on this...I've never actually tried. And it would likey vary from province to province.)

I took your advice but received this email reply: "Due to the large volume of COVID-19 related inquires we are unable to provide a personal response. This includes responding to health care professionals or health organizations."

Maybe a phone call will help, but the implication I hear is, "don't bother us; we're busy."

Hello Robert: have you seen the John Campbell video outlining the reported and actual covid deaths in UK. 175,000+ reported 17,000 actual

Yes I did. It's the same in Alberta I am sure.

Thank you for your reply.

Yes I think it is probably the same.

Are there any legal experts on this thread? I am interested to know by what legal grounds a government can lie to move an agenda forward.

Thank you
