The CBC says it “regrets” an article blasting Conservative MP Rachael Harder for sharing “misinformation” after she posted a Toronto Sun column about COVID-19 deaths in Alberta on social media.

Harder shared the Toronto Sun commentary on her public Facebook page in November 2020. The article discussed the number of COVID-19 deaths in Alberta relative to patients who had pre-existing health conditions.
