- Thread starter Ocean Breeze

CDA seems to be handling this pandemic rather effectively. Of course it varies province to province. But overall .......it is still much better than the US . Their health care system is not equal for all. If one has money and good insurance you are ok in the US........if not.....

We have re-opened slower and when appropriate. We also have had less hissy fits about social distancing, masks and following protocols. Less mass demonstrations complaining about lockdown. All 3 levels of government are not fighting with each other causing conflicting messages. No COVID parties.

Who is doing all the winning?
13% death rate isn't my idea of winning! Maybe someone considers it a win since you got sucked in!
I was at an old HBC sub-post and came across this. He made his own vaccines.
Cool
CLERK-IN-CHARGE:
ISAAC COWIE
Isaac Cowie was a Scotsman who had already worked as a clerk in a lawyer's office, served as a militiaman and attended two sessions of medical courses at Edinburgh University before entering the Hudson's Bay Company as an apprentice clerk at 18 years old.
In just a few short years, by the age of 21, he was promoted to Clerk-in-Charge at this outpost. Here, he kept detailed accounts of daily activities, kepta running tally of goods traded for the Hudson's Bay Company and delegated daily activities to those that worked at the post
Years later he wrote a book of his time in the fur trade called, The Company of Adventurers:
Narrative of Seven Years in the Service of the Hudson's A Bay Company during 18671874 that gives a glimpse into life in the west at a time when the fur trade was giving way to settlement.
One of the most far-reaching contributions Cowie made to the Qu'Appelle area was vaccinating the community against small pox.
66
As I had assisted my father and brother in vaccinating hundreds of children at home, I at once asked Mr. Breland to allow me to take the lymph from his grandchild's arm (who was healthy and had been vaccinated in England prior to arrival at Fort Qu'Appelle) ... on bits of window glass, enough vaccine to protect everyone requiring it in the fort, from whom the supply was increased sufficiently to vaccinate all the people about the lakes and the Indians visiting them that fall.

We are stuck with them for neighbors.
I very much doubt we ca go on as in the past. I know at the moment driving around Vancouver Island with an American license plate on your vehicle is not recommended. Even Alberta plates are getting a hard time from the public.
I moved as far as possible and still be on earth.
I feel sorry for you guys, fused at the hip with the beast.
