Re: Moved from Covid Quarantine > Political posts on the subject of Covid Quaran
Is anyone else amazed at how little criticism Trudeau is getting over the vaccine rollout? I watch the news in the evening and read the newspapers here in Vancouver, and the general impression is that everyone is doing their best, and it'll all be over when it's over.
Can you imagine The Guardian headlines if Boris Johnson had only vaccinated 1.3m people? Britain has vaccinated more people in 3 days than Canada has since Mid-December.
Why does nobody oppose Trudeau?

CBC. GlobalNews. CTV news. Lots of criticism there.
On the vaccine front, perhaps people recognise that if vaccines are not delivered as agreed then it's not the (non) recipient's fault.

It's just the way Canadian media operates you wont see the UK style headlines and attacks typically in Canada.
However I have seen articles critical of the government, sure maybe not to UK level but this isn't the UK and Canadian media simply is different.
JT isn't a politician I like, he drives me bonkers, reminds me of a slimy used car salesman. Says what he think people want to hear.
His popularity has dropped a bit, and Canadians are not happy with his vaccine rollout and the issues based on a recent poll that was done.

Canadians are angry about vaccine delays. It’s hurting Trudeau’s poll numbers: Ipsos

How do you find out the costs before booking (some hotels are supposed to be cheaper, in theory.. though being at the airport that's unlikely - cheapest normal booking for Toronto was around $180 a night for a room for 2 adults + 2 children (no meals or transportation etc.,). Surely they must mean $2,000 per room??

I was speaking with someone in Singapore last week who had already been waiting in a queue for an hour and a half on that booking phone number.

I would also be so frugal not even ask for any sort of date, but more for either some other form of underlying data, like an infection level, a death rate, any kind of incidence rate as a prerequisite for any quarantine requirements to be lifted. At this point we don't even know this one.

Cyprus leads the way and welcomes those with vaccines from May. Hopefully JT will rethink things and follow suit.

Re: Moved from Covid Quarantine > Political posts on the subject of Covid Quaran
I don't think it's going to happen any time this year. The government is far too comfortable with the current regulation, any changes to that would hurt their pride. And then there is also public opinion to consider, after all it's politics which decides over science, even though it's always mentioned the other way around....

At least we don't live in Point Roberts, Washington. They are dying economically big time.
