There is a gradual loosening of the measures in some areas where the virus seems to be under some control. The plan .....seems to be to do it gradually........which makes sense. Of course we need to get into a new form of normal ASAP..........that is a given.

Still waiting in Ontario. It would be nice to be able to go to a restaurant again. I don't mind working from home but others don't have the choice. Still not sure how I feel about public transit though.

NO!! Keep the option open to end the lockdown the minute it becomes safe to do so and not a minute before! As long as we are alive we can still go out and earn another $. Once we are dead our options start to diminish.

If that is the case...then that is good........but other areas have not yet. In fact this is the time to be extra careful.........to prevent a resurgence. Which would only prolong the self isolation and other measures. We cannot afford to become over confident.

Why doe it bother you so much , Walter??

Because it makes it difficult for him to be difficult?

A lot of people ARE working.........just in a different way... Even restaurants have changed their delivery style to take out.......but are still in business. One cannot underestimate people's creativity......and ingenuity. Who knows what great ideas will emerge as a result of this collective experience. Just made a trip to Home depot.......and they are totally organized. Markings on the sidewalk maintaining the appropriate physical distance. Controlled number of people going in at one time. and a staffer greeting the customers , while monitoring the flow of people. Did not even have to wait all that long.

It is how one COPEs withe the situation.......that maters. Whining about the lockdown does not help anyone.

Not allowing people their freedom is a losing proposition.

When Canada experiences its worst ever recession very soon how are you going to pay for your health service?

Who's going to pay for your benefits?

You'll have to wave goodbye to both.

That s not a freedom. That is just acting out and being belligerent and immature.

NO ONE can do what they want when they want as they please. there are social norms........

Hypothetical.

We will cope with it as and if it happens. One day at atime.
