Very refreshing to see a rational attitude re: the pandemic from a government official.
Earlier in the week, Ontario Premier Doug Ford somewhat reduced the panic and offered a bit of sage advice to Ontarians along with some easment of the lockdowns.
Ford said he understood the growing frustration and he trusts people will take responsibility for their own behaviour during the period of eased regulations.
That's good advice.
Local hooligans appear to have taken to picking on Canadians of Chinese origin lately, possibly looking for someone to blame for the pandemic..
Not a nice thing to do. If they looked, they should have noticed oriental faces absent from the rioting mobs both in Canada and the US.
They appear to be somewhere else, probably going to school or doing something useful.
One of the surgeons working on the skin problem over my left cheek last week asked if I'd had my Covid shot yet.
When I said not yet, he asked why not. I told him I thought they're prioritizing it all wrong.
"It should be people who have a stretch of years to live yet, not old guys like me."
He disagreed. Said he'd hate to be the one making decisions like that.
Think he's serious, or just trying to be nice?.
making decisions like that.
