Who hates COVID-19
i hate the government. Covid 19 has done nothing to me
Hate my government more!
@FPScanada Yeah it’s nothing to me but it’s serious it’s not a joke
I call it DIVOC-91 economics. 91 years from 2020 was the crash of 29…19 years earlier was the Sept. 11…We KNOW what this is about!
Covid hasn’t done anything to me or anyone I know. The government has fucked everyone over big time, however.
sesame street show with a bunch of puppets.
That’s not fair. Sesame Street in its prime with the muppets was actually fun and entertaining. This isn’t.
why is “non-essential” travel worse than “essential” what is the scientific difference?
U can’t carry Covid 19 , in a briefcase or a 50′ tractor trailer , lol !!!!
Somehow an “essential” traveler is exempt from catching or spreading covid 19 (sarcasm). They don’t even have to quarantine upon arrival in Canada. It is very possible ‘essential’ travelers brought the new variants here. The much maligned leisure travelers were actually quarantining upon arrival. The ‘essential’ traveler can be frolicking around Walmart coughing on our bananas two hours after they land….
@Thepieintheface There is none.
Essential travel is a requirement for societal function. Like a nurse going to work at a hospital across the border or a scientist going to another country to help with a study.
Non-essential travel is anything that is not required for societal function like going to a vacation to Miami
@Mark Javier Sounds like you are for it.
So they waited for all there ministers to take vacation before implementing this restriction! Get your fun in the sun in gang, we are keeping the general public home!
Does this travel suspension include private jets? I’m assuming it doesn’t.
No…If the ban extended to private jets sockboy would have to stay home and couldnt go to Barbados for however long ..Yeah right
Don’t tell me, I can’t afford an extra tank of gas per month. The worst offenders are politicians and their privileged friends. But laws don’t apply to them anymore, so other than putting on a show, what is the point?
millions of canadians are living in poverty from this we all die
Yes it sucks, and you know what else sucks theres nothing we can do about it.
What a stupid duplicitous answer.
Whats with the green patch on the clowns suit?
All leprechauns wear green.
I saw one on Trudeau too
Of course. Every government official done with the winter vacation.
So when politicians and crony establishment elitists do it it’s deemed “essential”; but when we surfs do it it’s wrong?
in a nutshell YES
We cannot travel but those government goofs can. Go figure, eh?
they cant that’s y they r resigning if they get caught travelling
Wow. The bottom feeders in the septic tank, THE LIEBERALS, taking a stand. Awesome. Too bad it’s a year late though.
They are afraid you might run into them at the resorts.
Exactly!
Lol nice
Wouldn’t want the sheeps running into our elected NOT selected politicians in the Sun! Do as I say and please not as i do. The air you breath could soon be very dangerous to your health…
So, are you all planning on not going to St Bart’s? Just curious if this is for just Canadians that do not work in government?
Less chance of them getting caught!!!
After the Government have all taken their sunny vacations now this?
Now that the politicians have had their trips, time to cancel all flights.
Anyone else feel dirty and abused after listening this? I can’t trust any of them.
Abused is right.
How the hell did this dip snip get that job??? Lmao
