  1. An Open Letter to the organizers, speakers, and anyone planning on coming to the protest this Saturday at Meridian Place:
    You are putting lives at risk by illegally gathering. Not just your own lives, but the lives of nurses, doctors, paramedics, police officers, and everyone else in our community. We're writing to urge you to think about these people, and reconsider how you choose to protest.
    In Barrie, our COVID cases have tripled in one week. The number of people arriving at RVH who are gasping for a breath due to severe COVID-19, is growing every day. These are our neighbours, mothers, fathers, sons and daughters. More have died in the past ten days that at any point in the pandemic, except during the Roberta Place outbreak.
    You have the right to protest, and should you chose to do so, do it safely. Protest online. Post on social media. But do not gather in crowds.
    You may think this is about freedom, but it isn’t - you are only contributing to the spread of this virus, which in turn, robs people of their freedom by getting them sick. You are endangering the very people you think you are advocating for by making it unsafe for them to be in a public square.
    You may think this is about supporting small businesses but in fact, you are hurting the very businesses you claim you're helping by risking the health of their employees and by driving potential business away. Our downtown small business owners would encourage you to reconsider.
    You may think this is about opposing the lockdown, but by spreading the virus you are contributing to the lockdown lasting much longer. We all have rights and freedoms, but none of us has the right to put other people's lives at risk. You may point to other protests – but they happened once, not every Saturday, and other organizers made attempts to mask and keep people safe. You are intentionally ignoring these safety measures.
    We understand you don’t like the lockdown. We don't either - Nobody does. But it is saving lives. It's what we need to do right now.
    Please don't gather. It's wrong, it's dangerous, and it's incredibly selfish. On behalf of all of our residents, particularly the elderly, immunocompromised, and all others vulnerable to COVID-19, please stay home.

  2. over 4700 cases yesterday.

    More Doug lockdowns coming as numbers could climb to 18000 a day by May.

    Entire families being hospitalize is a cool way to spend some time together.

     

    Best thing to do at this point is just open up and forget this stupid fake virus, it was made to get at Trump and he is gone so lets move on.

    Well they are the cause of them shutting down.  Open it all up.  Lockdowns don't work.

    NO the feds have not shutdown any businesses, Doug Ford shut them down as it is up to him not the PM...

    Province closes businesses and federal picks up the tab - 

     

    so you are okay with this debt :dunno:  seems you are not sure how to react so you go both ways :lol:

    notice we have moved from total debt to ratio of debt over GDP.

    this is the new way since debt is accumulated yearly by all Party's 

     

    Should the Federal government let businesses die under shutdowns?  just wondering

    :lol:  more PAY TO READ catch headline 

    You really had no idea what this was about did you?  other than the catch headline?

     

     

    The committee heard the exercise in February involved five Chinese military observers ranging in rank from sergeant to major-general, and Sajjan suggested he was responsible for cancelling the exercise after the two Michaels were arrested.

    Sajjan went on to accuse Stephen Harper's Conservative government of having initially approved the Chinese military's involvement, and that he didn't know about the exercise until it was brought to his attention.

    How can you know of something until it is brought to your attention.  These drills with China have been going on for a long time under Harper.  You won't see that anywhere in your info sites that you have to pay to read
