The Bill Kelly Show Podcast: Evacuation flights from Afghanistan resumed with new urgency on Friday, a day after two suicide bombings targeted the thousands of people desperately fleeing a Taliban takeover and killed more than 100. The U.S. warned more attacks could come ahead of the looming deadline for foreign troops to leave, ending America's longest war. As the call to prayer echoed through Kabul along with the roar of departing planes, the anxious crowd outside the city's airport was as large as ever. Dozens of Taliban members carrying heavy weapons patrolled one area about 500 metres (1,600 feet) from the facility to prevent anyone from venturing beyond. Thursday's bombings near the airport killed at least 95 Afghans and 13 U.S. troops, Afghan and U.S. officials said, in the deadliest day for American forces in Afghanistan since August 2011. ALSO: What we know about ISIS-K, the group behind the deadly Kabul bombings Guest: Phil Gurski, President of Borealis Threat and Risk Consulting, Director of the University of Ottawa's Security program, and former analyst at CSIS - The city has provincial approval for a work plan to deal with pollution in Cootes Paradise in the aftermath of a massive sewage spill. But it will take nearly a year to complete three environmental studies to help determine what projects to pursue to heal the befouled west-end marsh. The next step following sign-off by the Ministry of the Environment Conservation and Parks is hiring consultants to conduct the studies. GUEST: Andrew Grice, Director of Hamilton Water GUEST: Maureen Wilson, Councilor for Ward 1 Chedoke-Cootes - Mounting calls continue for a province-wide COVID-19 vaccine certificate from local medical officers of health across Ontario who want to see a universal system when it comes to providing proof of vaccination to employers, for events or to gain entrance inside businesses. A group representing Ontario's public health units says it is exploring regional approaches to COVID-19 vaccination policies in the absence of provincial direction. Dr. Paul Roumeliotis, head of the Local Association of Public Health Agencies, says the group wants the province to bring in a vaccine certificate system, which would limit access to non-essential activities to those who are fully immunized. He says the association has written to the province's chief medical officer with recommendations on a vaccine certificate system, among other issues. Without provincial direction, Roumeliotis says health units are looking at regional approaches instead. GUEST: Ryan Imgrund, Biostatistician See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We review results of our Real Talk Question of the Week, after more than 4,300 of you chimed in on how you feel about Alberta's government. (Spoiler: there are major trust issues.) Biostatistician Ryan Imgrund gets into Canada's vaccination numbers, explains what Alberta's doing right, and what Ottawa needs to do better. BloodWatch.org founder Kat Lanteigne explains why she's so troubled about changes to blood donation laws in Alberta, namely the UCP repealing the Voluntary Blood Donation Act.
Ryan Imgrund is a Canadian Biostatistician who snitched on, and attacked Canadian MPP Randy Hillier for defying COVID lockdown measures.Ryan works within data models, predicting death numbers based on variables like case infections, case infection rates and death rates. He aggressively pushes lock down measures, and completely ignores the more complex variables involved in calculating loss of life. Deaths associated from poverty and homelessness which are driven by lockdowns completely escape Ryans mathematical models – essentially as effectively irrelevant. Loss of life associated with Mental Health and Depression concerns, from things like suicide and drug overdoses, fly right over his head. Ryan will aggressively promote lockdowns and is quick to shame folks who do not adhere to his modelling. He even goes so far as to assign a number of dead bodies someone is responsible for, if they dare not comply to his asinine mathematical models and his demands to enforce the most authoritarian of lock down measures.
