Nik and Rachel also look at if mixed messaging will undo the goodwill political leaders earned during the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Finally, polling has shown already shown the hesitations Canadians still have to reopening the Canada-U.S. border, but will politics come into play? Rachel and Nik talk about how long the restrictions could last.

    1. And how the hell do you tie in racism into a Covid-19 titled video…
      Really? Omg what have these news channels succumb to, it’s getting quite pathetic

    2. @J J One is obviously better than the other. I can either watch through an entire video and waste lots of time or go through comments and just waste abit of time.

  1. It’s ok. I’ll just tell the Virus that i’m peacefully protesting something, and it will surely leave me alone.

    Youtube shadowbans comments that have the wrong words in them.
    Government and big corporations are your friend though <3

    Attention: The Pandemic has been suspended due to [insert rage bait here], please report to your local herd immunity distribution centre for further instructions. That is all…

  4. why is this lady pushing fear? a second wave? is that some kind of veiled threat? where is the virus going to come from then? Tam doesn’t specify any virus ‘hotspots’, does Tam want ppl to get sick? She should specify these socalled ‘hotspots’ so ppl can avoid them…she doesn’t specify!

    1. Its obviously the protests that are the hot spots! But they cant say that because then they would be for rAsCiSm

    1. aksek hiddelll Dude conservatives are just stupid. It’s better to be a liberal than a stupid conservative🤷🏼‍♀️

    2. I want to be a writer for that reason… easy money, great shills used for basic public influences and coverups.

    3. These sellouts are the Judas Iscariot’s of our time. At least he hung himself when he betrayed Jesus. They just keep taking the Silver.

    1. Delage Eric Racism is real and it’s a big issue. Nobody saying Covid is racism LOL. You Must be the whitest conservative if you’re trying to link those two things

    2. @Me E are you a bot, you keep replying to any negative comment, also you sound like a teenage girl shut up dummy

  5. did the warning come from the same “experts” that got every projection (incredibly) wrong so far?

    1. Yes, but, they have _incredibly_ sophisticated models. Not sayign they are accurate, but look how detailed and far reaching their projections are!!!
