The good news is, our government seems to be taking it more seriously than the clowns in the US. Hopefully we don’t get hit as hard.

You watching CNN again ? ... I was just in Texas and everything is being cancelled. Things are being shut down everywhere and that has been occuring since Tuesday. Did you know that that the USA has NHL, MLB, NBA, XFL and they are all suspended also ... just like here. Are you sure you even know what you are talking about ?
I just crossed into Canada at Toronto Airport and spent 30 s in front of a border agent. I don't think he looked me in the eye once, and didn't ask me how I was feeling. So we aren't taking it very seriously in Canada at all. I expected to have to undergo some sort of screening ... nope ... stamp stamp on your way ... NEXT!!

What does CNN have to do with our healthcare system? The big difference is, here if you are sick, you get checked out and they test you and you know. In the US almost half the population can’t afford to get tested, so by the time people figure out they have the virus, everybody they know will have it. |

The USA is nearly dead last in tests per million, that is the biggest issue. They have no clue where this thing is moving right now and the picture in a few weeks could be quite scary

The USA is nearly dead last in tests per million, that is the biggest issue. They have no clue where this thing is moving right now and the picture in a few weeks could be quite scary And in about 48 hours went from it being nothing but a "Chinese disease" that was nothing to be worried about to a full scale National Emergency with a travel ban that actually only hurts the spreading of the thing. The damage his inaction/care free attitude about this thing did to people over the age of 65 is almost criminal. He has most of them thinking this is nothing to be worried about or to change any habits over and that the rest of the world is in a media induced insanity. You really do see where systems are broken during times like this. And if you can't see where the Americans are fucking up here you're ignoring what that country has been during our lives and how far they've fallen in 3 years while their leader blames Obama's handling of the CDC for this yet Trump cut their funding and purposely ignored requests to start testing because he doesn't want people seeing the real numbers in an election year. |

Yeah it's a good thing they listened to state and local leaders and had no choice but to tune out the head of their Federal government who said its nothing earlier in the week. |

I didnt even vote for Trudeau and I dont know where I'd begin with a comparison on how both countries leadership is doing and comforting citizens but..
Trump:
Has been in close contact with multiple people who have shown symptoms or been tested positive yet has not been tested nor self isolated. Shook many hands only days ago. He may infect the entire whitehouse. His press conference today him and Pence both touched and adjusted the microphone several times with their bare hands.
Trudeau:
Self isolated immediately after his wife was showing symptoms.
The worst part is..his cult like following only follows what he says..making his downplay of the virus saying that people are going to work and getting better even more dangerous.

Sam Dow has been called up for this weekends games. Andersson and Huntley are on the injured list. What’s the issue with Axel? He’s been out for a long time It took a pandemic for us to find out but Axel has a concussion. |
