Loading ...Trudeau government sold pandemic ventilators for scrap to ‘understand recycling’
As first reported by Blacklock’s Reporter, the documents made available through an access to information filing indicate the ventilators were recycled while the COVID-19 pandemic was still ongoing, and as the Trudeau Liberals were imposing harsh restrictions on the public under the guise of protecting a strained health-care system.
The federal government sold off ventilators bought during the COVID-19 pandemic for scrap in an effort to “further understand” the recycling process.
The respiratory devices purchased from Starfish Medical as part of a $169.5 million sole-sourced contract cost $22,600 each (sole-sourced in 2020 from Liberal Frank Baylis’ company). Ventilators were sold for as little as $6 each to a high of $21.39 a piece by August 24, 2022. The World Health Organization declared an end to the COVID scare on May 5, 2023.
