11. Report of the Covid Commission

Author

Manning, Preston and Manning, Preston

Abstract

While the following story is fictional, the principle objective is non-fictional—to explore the likelihood that sooner or later Canadians will demand a full scale investigation into the management of the COVID crisis by our federal government, that any such investigation will occur despite the objections and opposition of the current Liberal-NDP Coalition, and that the findings of any such investigation may well provide additional reasons to support a future change of government at the federal level. The telling of this fictional story provides an opportunity: To identify the many unanswered questions that Canadians have raised concerning the management of the COVID pandemic. To imagine the voluntary testimony of public witnesses, medical and scientific experts, and government “insiders” whose advice has previously gone unheeded, in seeking to answer those questions.To imagine in considerable detail the conclusions, recommendations, and lessons which would result from such an investigation.
