The shutdowns and Social Distancing guidelines had to happen first. Perhaps, if they start taking the virus seriously. You know that Blindspot the Texas Gov is talking about. Sorry...no hero medals will be handed out after "control" follows disaster....not even in Canada. You can be afraid as much as you want...doesn't mean other people or nations will all do the same.

The fiscal threat comes amid a surge in cases across several states and highlights tensions between public health guidelines and the push to resume life as it was before the pandemic. "California has a responsibility and obligation legally and otherwise to enforce those laws," Newsom said, adding that it may utilize "the power of the purse" to do so. "That will be an exception and we hope we never have to trigger that." Edited June 25, 2020 by Boges Quote

Keep up these numbers and it will.

The United States has the most cases of any country in the world, and many states are reporting sharp rises in new cases as they ease shutdown orders. Edited June 25, 2020 by Boges Quote

Because the border really isn't closed. The land border is (Except to Trade), but if I can find a flight into Murika, I still can. Not that I'd want to. The trick is, I have to Quarantine for 2 weeks when I return. That's the biggest issue involving NHL and MLB returns. It's actually a lot safer for the Blue Jays to play in Toronto than Dunedin, but they need an exception for the 2 week rule. Edited June 25, 2020 by Boges Quote

Shady Posted June 25, 2020 Report Posted June 25, 2020 Nobody is forced to quarantine when they return to Canada. They are asked, but it's not enforced by anyone or any agency. Quote

As soon as only Canadians were allowed to come home, they imposed a mandatory quarantine on returning Canadians with fines up to $1M for non-compliance. I don't know if that quarantine was lifted yet, but I know people who were subjected to that rule.

As soon as these "protests" started getting ugly, the mainstream media shifted back to covid coverage. But they don't seem to make any connection between the thousands of people protesting over the last few weeks, and the increase in cases. Hmmm. Edited June 25, 2020 by Shady Quote
