Republicans in the Ohio House vote to put Canada on a federal watch list

  > But Democrats said it was unnecessary and even out of line for the Ohio Legislature to pass this resolution. Rep. Latyna Humphrey (D-Columbus) said questions about religious freedom are important. But she said Canada, not the state of Ohio, should be addressing those issues. It's like a drug abuse intervention. "Hey Canada, what you're doing is messed up."

  I was naïvely hoping that this was going to be some sort of mistake, but it seems like they're simply mad that Canada took Covid seriously: > Rep Reggie Stoltzfus (R-Paris Township) said religious leaders who violated COVID protocols in Canada were jailed. And he says that's not a behavior Ohio should condone. ... [He] said this behavior is "very similar to what we see in Communist-controlled China."

  As an atheist Canadian, thank you Ohio Republicans! Something sinister has been afoot in Canada.
