  1. Did anybody here about the 31,000 that died of the flu last year. Packs? wth. we aren’t wolves.

  2. Why did Canada send our needed medical supplies to China? Why did we pledge $15 million to Greece? They have the EU.
    RECALL PARLIMENT. NON CONFIDENCE VOTE!!!!

    1. 16 tons of supply was send to China at their hard times. Now China is fully recovered. They are the largest medical supplies producer. Even USA buy supply from China. Right now China is helping the World with its products. The 16 tons supply in there hard times male sure Canada can get help if situation get worse. Also every country are trying to secure more supply. The help before will win Canada some advantages. Lastly did Canada luck of supply? Not right now.
      if you are that extreme left wing. Watch USA. USA is breaking the trust between its ally, it is not the way make country great again.

    2. @changhao zhou i was with you until you brought up the usa, hopefully the aid we sent to help them they will return the favor, speaking as some one who lives in NS months before this we had a major shortage of doctors than BOOM this happens

    3. changhao zhou don’t trust China and WHO. They just lied two months ago. China may be still hiding the numbers of infected.

    4. @gentle peachy even they are hiding numbers the production of China is recovering. they produce products we need.

    1. DON’T BE STUPID …. DO YOU NEED TO SEE THE COFFINS AND BODY BAGS IN ITALY TO UNDERSTAND WHAT WERE FACING AND TRYING TO AVOID ???

    2. @1silvervespa yes I need to see it in real life to believe it. I’m sorry if I have questions

    3. I said that too. Then I was in Spain a week ago and saw what happened. Be grateful your govt is taking steps now. Much diabetes in NS? Much ahsma? Many heart conditions? Many with underlying health problems? They are all the vulnerable ones.

    1. They said police will be enforcing it, when they mentioned the potential fines.. The word of the day is “fines”.. Rewatch it and pat attention

  3. Don’t worry guys! Trudeau has millions of tax payer dollars to help you! Oh wait, that’s millions of tax payer dollars going to foreign aid not Canadians, whoops!

    1. @DontAskWye] Oh that. Well, Low.I.Q. Canadians re-elected him so we all have to suffer now.

    1. exactly. they’re making more, but the faster, the better. Eventually the immune system and medicine will catch up, but unless we want to shut down the world (which is not practical) we to increase production of face masks. For public and medical professionals.

  4. Hey,let’s listen and enjoy the time off so we can be rid of this before summer..great time to plan a garden because of supply disruption…go fishing if your bored ,let’s hope our lobster fishermen don’t get sick.If this gets out of hand it will be our fault and this will be our new normal…

  5. if everyone can stop their droplets coming out from the mouth and nose, it helps alot to flatten the curve. many ppl dont know they are virus carriers and talk right on ppls faces, droplets are on other ppls faces.
    wear whatever kind of covers on the faces which will stop the virus carriers droplets flying everywhere and also protect healthy ppl

  6. Thank you for not closing comments! 🙂
    Masks for vulnerable ppl are a must – we need to make more of them. Bc at some point we need ppl to be able to go back to work, while still keeping everyone safe. Chances are this will continue being a problem until our immune systems catch up.

  7. What exactly are the guidelines? It’s not clear enough. Will I be fined if someone walks too close behind me on the street?
