Conspiracy theorists spreading nonsense about COVID-19 are hindering Northland's testing response, health workers say.

Protesters turned up with placards at a busy testing site on Tuesday - an act one public health doctor says amounts to scaremongering at an already anxious time.

It was once a conspiracy theory that could get you deplatformed for talking about it—the coronavirus pandemic may have leaked from a Chinese lab, the Wuhan Institute of Virology. But that theory is gaining more and more traction as time goes on. Especially with the revelation that one of the scientists who early on criticized the lab leak theory, has close ties to the head of the Wuhan Institute of Virology, Dr. Shi Zhengli. Meanwhile, China is entering another major wave of coronavirus lockdowns and quarantines.

CANZUK — the budding idea of an agreement (of some kind) between Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Britain around some combination of cultural, economic and military affairs — is an interesting anomaly. International relations experts generally dismiss the concept, not least because it clearly echoes the Victorian ethos encapsulated by the “Anglosphere.” Problematic, too, is the gravity model of international trade, which holds that wide geographic distances impede deep economic ties.

It is increasingly difficult for countries like Canada to exert influence on the world. CANZUK seems to offer a way to make that possible again.
