    Its hard to quantify how many infections spread from the 423 positive tested participants. People were exposed. I dont have a US positive tested number but i know we had zero, and yet your govt wont allow canadians to cross the border.
    If you think trudeau's hindsight would have kept the border closed, why would you think its not worth closing it again? Or do you? Not sure i get your point on that one, sorry

    I read something that suggested the USA has the southern & northern border closed right now so if they opened the northern border with Canada they would need to also open the southern border with Mexico

    who cares about murderers thieves and rapists ?

    Even the dumbshits in the UK govt can tell the difference between 2 countries. They just cant tell which is the greater threat despite our officials dealing with a similar affliction

    I think there's an argument for closing it again, but there's also an argument to be made that the current protocols should do a good job of limiting Americans with Covid from entering Canada. First, only vaccinated people can get in. Second, the testing requirements should catch the bulk of the breakthrough cases from entering Canada. It's not going to be perfect, but I can't really see how it's creating an unsafe situation, either. Vaccines change the entire calculus.

    To a degree yes. We still have unvaxxed children though and vaxxed people can catch and transmit the virus, albeit less frequently and with a shorter transmission time span. In effect tourists add more transmission vectors for our unvaxxed children, their families and the dumbfuck deniers we have that will furthrr the spread. Tourists dont come here yo be home bodies

    You guys saying the border isn't open to Canadians isn't really true. I personally know Canadians who have traveled across the border to do business, and some of the Canadians living in this town have had family members come down and stay with them.

    Second home owners with a good story don't seem to be having much trouble either.

    The American border is closed to tourists and cross-border shoppers.

    I feel like American tourists who actually make it into Canada are far less likely to transmit Covid than Canadians in general. I suppose it's a group of people who otherwise wouldn't be in the country, but it just doesn't seem like a huge risk to me. I just don't think shutting down borders should be taken lightly. The default should be keeping them open.

    From what my brother could gather earlier today, the American tourists were the ones being turned away.

    That'd be our call to decide "our" risk not yours. Thats part of the problem we have. We're entitled to make our risk decisions

    Critically thinking for myself involves trusting people who are experts on certain subjects to tell me what their findings are, and what actions I should be taking. It certainly doesn't involve watching youtube videos on the toilet and drawing conclusions from that. Try watching funny cat videos instead of "WhAt ThEy ArEnT tElLiNg YoU aBoUt MrNa" the next time you take a shit, and leave the medicine stuff to the ones who actually know what they're talking about.

    But you won't - because you've got this allllllll figured out.
    I’d prefer to see the data, which there is not enough of....how can there be, we have only been shooting up this potion for 8 months.

    Money/ politics/ control is always at play. Puppets with prefixes will be hired to support opinion, Scare tactics will be used to coerce opposition and separation amongst beliefs will dominate manipulation. History already shows us this and human nature will continue to demonstrate it to us. I’m not saying that covid doesn’t exist I’m saying take everything you hear with a grain salt, there is alternative motives at play.

    Are you not aware of the rush of illegal immigrants crossing the southern US border? 200k per month untested and many with Covid and being transported all over the USA. Officially the southern US border may be closed but in real terms its wide open and a major crisis.

    lol- fda approved it. Of course they will. How else do u get the unvaccinated to consider getting vaccinated? Big pharma and political agendas will do anything to gain control plus all the vax makers have a not-liable clause to protect them. Nobody is to blame if you get cancer, go blind or become immune-compromised 10-15 years from now. Let's not forget the way they have this set-up its voluntary and you should do your own research as accountability relies on you. Such bullshit...

    lol-im not scared, but apparently you are. I know your in BC but you should be scared to come to AB as our government is taking the steps to treat this as the seasonal flu based on science and data. Hide in your hole, life is scary out here....lol

    Or come protest in Cgy with the rest of the 100 idiots supporting Dr. Vipond and the NDP paid protest advertisment's....

    It would make more sense if we could get him to replace Horgan. At least the west would be all on the same page?

    So you think all the doctors busting their butts to get us vaxxed are compromised by big pharma pressure? The same friends and community members living in our ski towns intertwined with friends and families? Its not like they need any more hours at work. Theyre full up pre pandemic together with balancing that mt town quality of life. Thats some ridiculous paranoid kool aid induced dumbshit bro. So much for "thinking for yourself" as you like to put it

    You've admitted in pretty much every post that you are, in fact, very scared. Scared of a vaccine shot that has been given 4.5 billion times worldwide. Scared everybody is out to get you and put one over on you. Scared every scientist and health expert is trying to hurt you. I think it is accurate to say that you are the very definition of scared.

    Interesting view-I appreciate your opinion, however you do not know me. Anyone one that knows me would say the contrary, but I’m not looking for any validation.
