Re: Coronavirus
You are risking it a bit on here, any talk like that does gets their hackle up - lol. To be fair it's not just BEP folk, there are a lot who just don't seem to care if we ever get out of endless lockdowns and restrictions. Some people I know basically haven't worked for a year and but have received furlough and top up money meaning they are on full pay. As they have no commuting and other work related costs they are £££££s in. I'm one of those who qualifies for zero help from the government. I can cope myself but I know of small business owners facing losing every thing including the family home.
Personally I have yet to be persuaded that the whole thing hasn't been massively overplayed and I feel so sorry for the young ones that already are struggling and who are now going to be paying this for the rest of their working lives.

3 million dead people.
Not my idea of "overplayed."
But debate that as you will, it doesn't justify loopy conspiracy theories involving Bill Gates and the Pope.

Re: Coronavirus
What your saying is that there has been 3m additional deaths - that would be 1 in every 2000 people including children. You might want to do a bit more research.

Re: Coronavirus
Are people waking up yet? I have been doing a spreadsheet since January 2021 getting the figures directly from CTV News website (red banner on page) of the number of cases, deaths, recovered, etc. from ALL across Canada.
- the last column is the number of deaths daily from a population of 37.5 million
Whilst no death is acceptable I would ask you all to have some common sense- and ask yourself this question
Is it acceptable to close down a whole country for an average daily number of 52 deaths out of a population of 37.5 million?
If you are waking up- you will ask why are we being subjected to that? Then I will advise you that this is about way more than the virus and that Reiner Fuellmich ( the lawyer who successfully sued VW for their emissions scandal) is leading a worldwide team of lawyers in suing governments worldwide for the damage caused by the lockdowns, the PCR tests, the experimental vaccines
If you don't believe me or think i am a conspiracy nut, then I urge you to watch the discussion which took place this morning.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFB2AA28_q4&t=1s
and also listen to an interview with Michael Swinwood a Canadian lawyer who is also part of the team.

All I ask is that you please think about things...yes people are dying and that is really sad, but people need to understand what the truth is.

If people followed the damn rules of distance, masks, handwashing, and staying at home the effects of COVID would be a lot less.
You are at best deeply misguided.

Re: Coronavirus
To clarify, Bill Gates and the Pope are not victims of covid but the authors of a dastardly scheme to convince the sheeple that there's a plague so that we'll all have vaccines in the arms and that'll grew transmitters in our heads so that Bill Gates and his computery things will be able to beam papal thoughts in and convert us all to Islam.

Various reasons one can travel for and not be in violation of the health order. Police are not permitted to ask for any documentation to back up your reason for travel, so seems mostly honor based.

- visiting by an essential visitor or a social visitor as provided in the guidance of the Ministry of Health set out in a document titled Ministry of Health - Overview of Visitors in Long-Term Care and Seniors’ Assisted Living that went into effect on April 1, 2021;
- attending a funeral service;
- travelling under the authority of a variance of an order issued by the provincial health officer under the Public Health Act if the variance was made before this order comes into force;

Re: Coronavirus
The Premier of Ontario is putting pressure on Trudeau to lockdown the land borders and internal flights. Doesn’t make sense to close most airports, then have the passengers isolate in a hotel, when people can just walk/drive over the land borders, or fly from Province to Province and go straight to their destination.

Re: Coronavirus
It is thought that vaccinated people can still carry and transmit the virus. Plus it’s the variants that are worrying…especially if one arises that is a vaccine resistant variant.

Not to be confused with Xenaphobia, or fear of Warrior Princesses, but that's a story for another thread.
