  1. So let me get this straight.. Canadians can’t fly to Mexico on a Canadian airline, but they can still fly to Mexico on an American airline ? How is that supposed to help the spread exactly..?

    1. @Paul Fekkes Omg dude are you seriously that dumb ? What is the reason for a worldwide conspiracy ? Seriously !?! Think your answer through before you type it.

    2. there is no spread. one year later the words “new variance” and “rapid spread” are the new buzz words not capturing my attention. its all theatre

  2. A woman in her 20’s in Alberta is in a covid hotel jail & she tested – so + or – makes NO difference

    1. @justsayupyours You don’t know what you’re talking about. You don’t even understand the difference between PCR and antibody tests.

    2. @Rodrigo de la Jara PCR tests are for genetic material and an antigen test is for proteins associated with the virus.

    1. Постали су гори од комуниста.
      Проблем је што у овој држави нико нема м… да барем контрира овим мафијашима.
      Чега год су се дохватили, упропастили су.
      Сем тога, већи ниво апатије ја нигде нисам видео до сад.
      Ова држава ће да пропадне врло брзо.

    2. @U C Па већ јесте,само ће сад пропаст да се убрза. Зомбирана маса ће се тешко покренути , али у Европи пружају отпор, данас нпр. Беч, а и Данци. За то време овде људе одводе, да не кажем киднапују право с аеродрома уз папрену глобу у “Хотелу Калифорнија”. Право лудило тек почиње…

    3. @U C А људи који изађу на улицу да мирно протестују бивају ухапшени. Демократија, нема шта…

    4. Ово је најпогодније тло за манипулацију. Овде се нико не буни и никад се ништа неће променити. Послушни робови.
      Иста говна су и у Аустралији, Новом Зеланду и Британији.
      Овде нема помоћи.
      Треба бежати на време.

  3. Canada does not have the strictest rules because if they were the strictest you wouldn’t be able to make them more strict

    1. Another one of Trudopes diversity appointees to cabinet…as useless as Hajdu, McKenna, Chagger and the rest.

  4. Now that trudeau & all the other politicians are back from their Holidays it’s time to shut everything down….

  5. Only after politicians did there Christmas vacations in tropical destinations do they add more restrictions. get lost.

  6. call everyone dictator, and send your own citizens to paid jail/hotel and charge them, at least dictators they dont charge for jails

  7. Why not get someone who knows what he is talking about…..forget airlines they make millions in profit year in year out where did all that magically disappear…What a muppet
