    1. @denny loverin Overflowing morgues is not a typical first world problem. Terrible pharmaceuticals distributed ineffectively or only to the rich, now that’s the first world problems I’m familiar with. But seriously, thoughts and prayers for the families who have to deal with this.

  1. Trudeau takes too many Vacations to care about Normal People’s lives. He is a GOLD SPOONED BABY. And has NO IDEA how to Run An ENTIRE COUNTRY! I’ll Guarantee all The Trudeau Death issues would have been dealt BY Lawyers and Family. ( Trudeaus and Spencer’s) . He has no clue the Issues being Faced by the “common folk” .

  2. We cant let our nation’s capital run out of budget and space to dignify our loved ones. Our beloved deceased citizens decomposing without refrigeration openly in our hospitals and funeral homes sounds like appaling horror. Where is the money?
