Doug Ford ingnored tha data and science to appease the Teachers Union. Not a single person in Canada under 19 has died of Covid and the few that had hospitalization have recovered. There is also a health cost being isolated.
So, you are waiting for some kids to die?
@T Tom Making decisions based off facts and not fear.
@T Tom Nice strawman.
Still no word on when kids can get back into the schools to collect personal property left there since March break.
So, some personal property is more important to you than your child’s life? What kind of parent are you? Penny wise pound foolish?
Worried about a big bag o weed?
@T Tom Little evidence to suggest your childs life would be at risk at all.
@Rjr Bl then play with your children’s lives
If one child get the China rona, the whole school will have to shut down again. Do not play with Children’s lives and they have made the right decision not to open now.
well said!
Agreed and I don’t think they will realistically open in Sept either
wanna be friends?
I hope summer camp start in 2021 for the next year and go back in the fall after covid-19 is over soon in the fall. can they ‘re-open in the and make things better soon no more covid-19.
I wonder why Fuhrer Lecce is so adamant. Oh right, you has a high-paying job.
Our premier Doug and mister lecce. Make the right decision to close the school, because our children lives are more important, because this virus is dangerous and deadly. Children can do the e line learning. Yes parents I understand they have to go to work. But isn’t your children lives are more important?
How many children have died from this virus in Canada?
What is wrong with this country? Flights in from China come into Vancouver daily. Why isn’t this addressed?
Because addressing real issues is called being racist or a conspiracy theorist.
not only, Country is open for illegal immigration as well
Doug Ford: Children I’m hear to tell you the boogeyman is real.
