I'm ok with this!
Conservative foreign policy position in this is ludicrously dangerous. Considering China is sending more PPE to us than we sent to them, and they are too short sighted to understand the benefits of stopping a virus at the source.

I love the highlighted reply that twitter gives me that points to this tweet.
Thanks for the reply. I did report him to Amazon, but who knows if they'll do anything. We did have a new courier today, who wore gloves and was (seemingly) healthy. No nonsense too, just piled everything in the corner and left.
The problem is if it went straight to this then everyone would've jumped all over him. What really needs to happen is have measures like this right away for future pandemics. Shit needs to be law.
What's surprising about this? Every country will eventually head down this path in the short term.
China, if numbers can be believed has largely contained the spread to a limited number of regions. You don't want imported cases creating new hot spots.
That's what we have the Emergencies Act for which the CPC has been egging him on to do so they can scream dictatorship and power grab, which they did anyway after lying.
Someone asked the question about what more is being done with banks and the answer was not only unhelpful but factually incorrect. Banks aren't deferring interest. They intend to make their money.
Is that lower compared to yesterday's figure? I feel like it is. Hopefully will trend in that way.
Here's a neat graph comparing our test rate to other countries.
Yeah, don't remember the number exactly but it was 300+ yesterday
Yes.
Went up +409 on Monday, steady decline in up number since.
+368 on Tuesday
+326 on Wednesday
I don't kow if it has been mentioned but they addressed why Ontario's recovery numbers are taking so long to climb, and apparently it's due to the brunt of testing being prioritized for potential cases rather than retesting/clearing existing ones.
Which is fine, the same thing happened in BC. There were 0 recorded recoveries until suddenly there were 100 and then 170+. I figure recoveries are less important to know about, so it makes sense.
But we'll need recovered people to possibly go back to work earlier or provide plasma with antibodies for treatment if it proves effective elsewhere
This is positive news for the other provinces. I hope it keeps up. Ontario being a week behind Quebec i think from the later March break. I'm hoping Ontario can quickly show a downward slope.
Went to a grocery store.....a lot of people are keeping their distance and acting respectfully but there are some real pieces of work out there who loudly complain about how this isn't necessary, think because they are wearing a mask it's ok for them to cough repeatedly and not stand back from others in line =/
So... I live in Milan, I have been in quarantine since February 28th, I live alone ( my family live far away from here), continous isolation has been taking a toll on me.
I have been playing vg (even if I have completed everything I could afford), cook, clean the house 12 times, read every book I had.
Era any idea?

Good news, Trump is looking to militarize the border to keep us safe from illegal American entry attempts.
It always takes one or two bad apples. But as long as the rest of us are respecting each other's space, I'm happy.
Let's say someone has 2 part time jobs but loses one of them because the government says people can't work at more than one nursing or retirement home during the pandemic, are they eligible for CERB or anything?
boardgamearena.com lets you play board games against other people online, might be worth looking into.
Any benefit experts know if I'll qualify for this new $2000 a month benefit?
Lost my job in Jan and started school in Jan, do not qualify for EI until Aug due to severance.

If you have income you probably won't qualify (although you may get some partial support under a certain threshold)
I think there was a massive jump in QC monday because they changed how they report numbers. They stopped waiting for cases to be verified, and just report initial test results. Or something like that. I don't know how that would affect subsequent days counts (in case that a portion of cases come back verified negative from the previous day)
I understand the need for journalists to grill the government for important things. But today at the daily update, Legault reminded people that volunteer organizations needed more volunteers, and directly appealed to people who lost their jobs. And then later, he got asked by a journalist "Isn't it hypocritical to close down shops and stores and then ask people who lost their job to go do volunteer work?"
I'm not a fan of the CAQ but Legault has been a rockstar so far during this crisis
I don't want to dwell on the moral of it but it seems contradicting to the Stay Home message.
There are are services that cannot and they are being overwhelmed

Speaking of reading, have you tried ebooks, if you are unable to travel due to the isolation restriction? I find myself reading more often these days in a digital format while being at home. I was working from home shortly after this whole thing began, but ended up taking an extended staycation to help out my family.
Have you tried to watch some shows in a marathon viewing?
Also, you can definitely hang here with us, and discuss the ongoing news happening everywhere. Just interacting and talking online, can help give you an outlet to express yourself.
There's lots of shortages when it comes to deliver food to people who need it and stuff like that. It's not a contradiction, these services need to be provided.
I don't think so, since there are volunteer organizations out performing essential services; that's not contradictory to trying to shut down inessential/leisure activities.
I thought Australians werent taking things seriously? They are doing better than us.

I want to take this time to thank all the folks in this thread. We have been discussing logically, and sharing in a really efficient manner, to keep us all informed on the various happenings in each of our individual timezones across the country.
Some companies are still not getting the message.
Just today I was shortlisted for a job, however for the next step, they want me to come in for an in-person interview on April 2nd. Which just seems irresponsible and unnecessary.
Told them unless they're willing to conduct it remotely I wouldn't be interested.

Genuinely really happy with the way the country is handling this crisis. We'll beat this.
I have to agree.

Ontario boosting COVID-19 capacity to test almost 20,000 people a day by mid-April
Samples will be sent to private and hospital labs that have the capacity, starting immediately. But not everyone sick will be tested.
Hope they aren't BSing
Saskatchewan reports 9 cases, total 95 cases.
They are now breaking down hospitalization vs icu; 5 to 2, with 3 recovered.
