I'll start wearing a mask when I join your brain damaged buddies tearing down Thomas Jefferson monuments and throwing molotov cocktails at police cars. But thanks for the advice.

Oh, BTW... Friends of yours, Ted?

I mentioned what I did about Alberta because there seems to be a strain of asocial truculence, that might show up in less than helpful behaviors when it comes to trying to quash a pandemic. I could be wrong, but I think of Alberta as the Texas of Canada.



The middle of May brought a long weekend to all of Canada in BC it was the Victoria Day weekend. So, in Toronto there were huge numbers of people gathering in the local parks even with park people being out and trying to insure social distancing.

Toronto is also the largest city in Canada followed by Montreal then Vancouver then Calgary then Edmonton.

Also Kiki, I don't think the problem in Alberta is with Albertans themselves. I did mention that Americans are coming into Alberta saying they are going to Alaska when in fact they are VACATIONING in places like Banff and Jasper which they SHOULD NOT BE DOING.

I should apologize for making Alberta's numbers seem worse than they are. It was 20 new cases in Edmonton. Their numbers are not too much higher than BC's. And they have been there for us. Example when their numbers were lower than ours and they had extra medical supplies they sent the extra to BC. Canadians come together in a crisis.

OK!

Yeah, I can see Americans coming to Canada and ignoring your rules, or worse, actively subverting them.

Sigh. I apologize for my fellow countrypeople.




I've been following the numbers of both the total for the US as well as for the various states (plus my home state California and my home county Los Angeles for personal reasons). So I have a fair idea of what's happening when and where.

I don't have any information at all about Canada, except what you bring here. Just to be nosy, did Ontario(Toronto) and Quebec(Montreal) experience a reduction followed by a spike 3 or so weeks after Victoria day? If you could answer that question without too much trouble, I'd appreciate it.

We have a president who, instead of wearing a mask, turns defiance of mask-wearing into a heroic act of defiance against liberals; who forces 1,100 West Point cadets to travel back to campus, and quarantine for two weeks, so he can get a photo op addressing their graduation; who is planning a mass rally in Tulsa, Okla., on Saturday — where the most notable precaution is that you sign a legal disclaimer that you “voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to Covid-19 and agree not to hold Donald J. Trump for President Inc” liable.

It is absolutely devilish — like Trump wakes up every morning and asks himself: What health expert’s advice can I defy today?

Maybe your activist Legacy Media shouldn't have spent 24/7 the last three years spouting lies, hypocrisy and hyperbole if you want anybody to take them seriously when something you actually give a shit about is happening.

The media is squarely to blame for the fact that nobody believes them anymore.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

And you have even less place trying to determine what people can and can't post - especially since I'm not posting anything inciting violence, sedition, libel, or even remotely unpleasant.

GO FUCK YOURSELF IN THE ASS.
