  • Itamar Ben-Gvir
    Itamar Ben-Gvir “I have no doubt that Netanyahu will bring me in [the war cabinet]. I think Netanyahu understands very well what I want from him. We have private conversations and in private conversations I allow myself to tell him many things.” 2 hours ago
  • William Lai
    William Lai “I hope that China will face the reality of the Republic of China's existence and in good faith ... engage in cooperation with the legal government chosen by Taiwan's people.” 2 hours ago
  • John Kirby
    John Kirby “When it comes to Iranian policy, it is Khamenei who calls the shots, not the president. So we don't anticipate any change in Iranian behavior. And therefore the Iranians should not expect any change in American behavior when it comes to holding them accountable.” 2 hours ago
  • Ali Vaez
    Ali Vaez “The upcoming election offers an opportunity for the clerical establishment to pursue a different course by allowing a relatively competitive vote. But I suspect that the regime is dedicating all its efforts to preparing for a succession after Khamenei, striving to create homogeneous conditions at the top of the power pyramid, and not allowing any rivals into this circle.” 2 hours ago
  • Sanam Vakil
    Sanam Vakil “[Raisi] was a loyal functionary willing to do the bidding of the supreme leader through multiple institutions. There are no obvious candidates that can tick a lot of boxes.” 2 hours ago
  • Hamidreza Azizi
    Hamidreza Azizi “The death of Raisi, in itself, will not cause a significant shift in Iran's policies. After all, the president is the second in command in the power hierarchy of the Islamic republic, and strategic directions are set by the supreme leader. The next president could have significant influence over the overall trajectory of Khamenei's succession. As a result, this is going to lead to heightened intra-conservative competition to [become president].” 2 hours ago
  • Lauren Easton
    Lauren Easton “The Associated Press decries in the strongest terms the actions of the Israeli government to shut down our longstanding live feed showing a view into Gaza and seize AP equipment. The shutdown was not based on the content of the feed but rather an abusive use by the Israeli government of the country's new foreign broadcaster law. We urge the Israeli authorities to return our equipment and enable us to reinstate our live feed immediately so we can continue to provide this important visual journalism to thousands of media outlets around the world.” 8 hours ago
  • Itamar Ben-Gvir
    Itamar Ben-Gvir “Israel should be the one that controls the Gaza Strip, unequivocally, and no one else. Most important is encouraging voluntary emigration of Palestinians from the enclave. Israel could then facilitate the return of settlements. I would love to live in Gaza if possible.” 8 hours ago
  • Donald Tusk
    Donald Tusk “An attempt to show that the prime minister of Israel and the leaders of terrorist organisations are the same, and the involvement of international institutions in this, is unacceptable.” 8 hours ago
  • Volodymyr Zelenskiy
    Volodymyr Zelenskiy “They [the Russian side] are always blocking everything, they will undermine the process, and they won't rest until they present us with their own plan for ending the war, which will inevitably be an ultimatum, as we have seen on many previous occasions. We can't hand the initiative over to them [...] Our agenda can't be dictated by Russia. This is a war against us, so there is justice in this. The goal of the summit is to come up, between Ukraine and its allies, with a joint stance on three key questions - and then to inform Russia of their position. If all countries support these three points, as I said, then a detailed step-by-step plan will be developed and presented to Russian representatives across different platforms that different countries have [...] Then Russia will have to contend with most of the world.” 9 hours ago
  • John Holman
    John Holman “Few question his ongoing legitimacy and he [Zelenskyy] remains popular. Although lower than before, his approval rating's still above 60 percent. Many Ukrainians also feel an election would be unrealistic and disrupt the war effort. In a poll this March [2024], 78 percent of those asked said they were against elections before the end of the war. But in addition to that there's also the practical difficulties. Some Ukrainian towns are in ruins. Many power plants have been hit so there's rolling blackouts. And perhaps most importantly, there's 8 million people displaced, 5 million outside the country.” 9 hours ago

Covid-19 - The new variant Omicron - Reaction in Canada

Page with all the IPSEs stored in the archive related to the Context Covid-19 - The new variant Omicron - Reaction in Canada.
The IPSEs are presented in chronological order based on when the IPSEs have been pronounced.

“Omicron is moving so quickly that it has become pretty much impossible to pin down the full extent of spread in real time. PCR testing capacity is overwhelmed. Rapid antigen tests [RAT] are inconsistently available. Those with positive RAT results often have no way to register them let alone confirm them.”

“Unfortunately these measures are very little and I think are highly unlikely to do much at all to stem the tide of infections...and unfortunately with something that transmits as quickly as Omicron you have to move immediately because anything less than that and the transmission of the infection is going to outpace your efforts, it's sad but it's a mathematical fact.”

“The epidemiological situation is critical. The community spread is astounding. Our health system is already in crisis … and things aren't getting better. Hospitalizations and intensive care unit admissions are on the rise.”

“It's not a recipe against the current tidal wave that Ontario is starting to face already, and other provinces will follow. We invest with the booster so that when we loosen restrictions again … we start to see protections through the boosters. That's the idea. We need interventions to blunt the wave so that we have a bit more time so that … we are able to roll [boosters] out and that they are able to start to develop their effectiveness.”

“Canadians have been attentive [to COVID-19] for months and months. We've seen that people know how to do the right thing. They're going to have to be vigilant and make careful decisions about Christmas.”

“Most people in Canada, like other wealthy countries, haven't been infected with COVID-19. So if they lack vaccine protection they are especially vulnerable to Omicron. What really worries me is that people are asleep at the steering wheel, internationally. They have wishful thinking it will be mild ... This is not a realistic attitude. I'm completely exhausted. I've had it. I'm done completely. But the virus doesn't care.”
