The claim is that people with positive test results will be taken to a government facility. There are currently 40,000 or so active COVID-19 cases in Canada. That'll require a big "facility". 

Boges, as that old Scottish saying goes, it's the thin end of the wedge. In other words that's always how they get it in, to get started. Later on is when the really heavy pounding starts...

In 1918, as in 2003, it was learned that quarantine is not always feasible or effective because of the resulting stigmatization and the economic damage that results (in the case of SARS, Toronto’s tourism business was badly hurt). Planning needs to be tailored to the local response.

Levy notes one major change from 1918 — disease spreads much faster with today’s jet travel. The Spanish flu originated in China in February 1918 but did not reach Canada until September of that year.
