How is the virus different in Canada, compared to the UK, Denmark, southern US states and other places that have ended mandates? Why are our governments doubling down on vaccine mandates at this point?

The supposed 70% of Canadians that want mask mandates are obviously not wearing masks right now. What are they waiting for? The guy on TV to tell them to? Obviously, these people love mandates more than they really want masks. Authoritarian cowards.
