It's been a year since the WHO declared COVID-19 to be a global pandemic, and people are tired. We've seen generosity and altrusm abound, but there are signs people are losing patience, too. VICE health and wellness journalist Katie Way joins from Brooklyn to reveal "Why Everyone Is Acting Like An Asshole Lately". With Premier Jason Kenney trailing Rachel Notley's NDP in several recent polls, Alberta's United Conservative Party will hold a leadership review at its 2022 AGM. So, why not 2021? Founding party president Erika Barootes shares her insight on the significance of the process, and her evaluation of Premier Kenney's leadership to this point. Plus, we review the results of our most recent (and super fun) Get Real: Question of the Week by Y Station, and bring you Positive Reflections, presented by Kuby Energy!
