We were in pre-covid times, we are currently in war time covid times and will eventually get to post covid times...I think most folks are basing their current opinions on the past pre-covid times experience. BTW most legitimate news outlets reporting that Ontario case count is lowering. Lock down is having some effect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have been ordered to stay at home and leave only for essential reasons. The stay-at-home order must be followed if we are to slow the spread of this deadly virus and save lives. While these enhanced closures are frustrating, they are temporary. "In contrast to not being able to snowmobile, skate or toboggan during the stay-at-home order, what would truly be intolerable is losing a loved one due to a COVID-19 outbreak or not having room in the ICU when a loved one really needs it, having a loved one in hospital due to COVID-19 and not being able to visit them, and not being able to visit close family members in long-term care. We all need to work together and act now to save lives." There I fixed it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tricky Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Accurate correction revrnd. The lone protester deserved more sledder support. Good on him for acting on his convictions, even if his message was a little off the mark. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COSTCO called me a while back, and let me know my membership expired at the end of October. I said yup, and had no plans at this time to renew it. I'll skip the few things I cant get anywhere else, and support the local grocer that is in town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a very well written letter! Good that he brought up the FACT that this is the ONLY health unit in the province to close the trails.
