Yea, I'm pretty sure trade with the US will be stifled with all countries moving forward.

Looks like the border will be closed to all but essential issues for a while longer.

Not quite. Prince Groper of Canada announced that family will be allowed to travel across to visit family. Goddam this sure is one selective virus. It'll come and get ya if you go to the park but hey, let's all protest something because the MSM got us all worked up over some racism narrative.
Can't go across the border to shop, but I can go and visit family, and if we happen to do some shopping in the meantime... yeah, f*ck off with this shit.

And now the WHO ( as reliable as they are :lol: ) have suggested that asymptomatic people might not actually be infectious. Which I think would be a first for a virus.


So, here we are getting conflicting messages from the WHO, and getting conflicting messages from politicians who have clearly put ideology above the public health and safety they keep trying to convince us they're sooooo concerned about.

I think at this point it may be one of the things saving us from deeper troubles. If we re-open it has to be done carefully.

You have 100,000 truckers cross the border every week from Canada, going to get you food in Texas, Florida and California..

They stop at least 3 times on that trip and are in Flying J's, Petro, TA's, Pilot.. and other truck stops, conversing and touching stuff other trucks have touched travelling across the USA...

I had COVID-19 and they didn't test me for 2 months, going back and forth..

Please tell me how any of this shit is helping anyone.

OH, FYI.. at the border.. they ask you.. have you felt sick or have a cough..

If you say yes, they pull you in, hold your truck and load..

So what do you say?? "Nope not me"

Only one trucker was dumb enough to say yes..and he was sent to a military base. the load spoiled and the truck impounded..

Every place I go they ask if I have been out of the country in the last 14 days , including my barber . Even if I had been my answer would still have been no .

Truckers, Doctors and Nurses in Windsors, ON that go back and forth between the USA/Canada are essential.. the 14 days do not apply to them.
Not everyone is so lucky . Do you even as an essential service not have to answer those very questions at drop off and pickup ?

It's a numbers game.

I think it's helping.

This just shows us all as to just how stupid and brainwashed politicians have become by making all of these useless and stupid rules to be able to do and get things done. Of course people will not gladly say that yes I have a cough.

We are all now starting to see and finding out as to what the inside of an insane asylum really looks like. Cuckoo-cuckoo.

Anything that keeps out the Yank Flu is probably worth the effort.

Well, smart ass. You better start to demand that your stupid Canadian politicians to stop all trucks from going back and forth between America and Canada with most of the goods that you need to use or survive with.

Hey, with all of the reported new increases in the china virus in America maybe the Americans should stop all truck traffic from going into Canada into America because maybe it is all those Canadian truck drivers that are spreading this China virus in America and are the ones responsible for those new China virus increases in America. Think about that for awhile, if you can, and get back to me, okay, silly boy.

I keep asking myself all the time as to how did you get this far in life with so little. You are truly amazing. LOL.
