News flash! My holidays will be done how I want them to be done, neither you or the government has any say in it.
I stand with you on this.
Amen
Make sure to gift a ventilator to grandma.
@kevin Jhonson If gramma wishes to take that risk to be with family, that’s her right. Just like we all accept the risk of putting ourselves and our children in vehicles despite 1800 MVA deaths per year in Canada.
Cough cough
Actually Christmas will be exactly the same regardless of what someone in government tells me
100%
Until you lose family members to covid that is.
@Marci the Fennec Ok princess. I’ll take my chances instead of living like a coward.
@Hop Guild Mmmm, risk the health of my family I will. Contribute to the 1.21 million deaths and 46.9 millions cases I must.
Natural selection will run its course and hopefully when the new virus comes we won’t have to deal with this again.
Covid is apparently racist!!! And comes out after 11pm. Jokes!!
@Christopher I think that Santa and Covid are sharing our info.
The approach is reactive, which is why cases keep climbing. Just encourage masks as a central measure (they work in asia and are harmless) already to stop this in its tracks please. Also please get a spokesperson who can communicate clearly.
they literally explained it in the video are you stupid?
@mikei no i am actually quite intelligent unlike you. You are a covidiot but dont worry…i will🙏 for you
@mikei You’re not noticing that the OP isn’t serious, kinda should be questioning your own intelligence methinks.
Im praying for a better one. The Last 2 have been Terrible.
We should be more concerned with the isolation “camps”and bill 218. Without a resounding NO from the powers that shouldnt be, we all need to be extremely worried.
Dont tell me how my christmas is gna be
More bs coming from our government, keep it up guys! Deeply hope you guys all pay for your crimes soon!
Christmas will be the same at my house.
And mine!! 🥳🎄
why stop with christmas
next Easter will be different
Next Canada Day will be different
Christmas for the next 50 years will be different
I feel that almost everyone doesn’t care anymore.
You’re right about that.
Apathy is complacency. Stay sharp, don’t buy into this sensationalist garbage.
LMAO!! He’s so frustrated talking to her. Can’t get a straight answer even after he literally begs her for one!
It is difficult demanding straight answers from *Spin* Doctors.
Seems like he’s getting a taste of his own medicine.
There will be no answer. Waist of time. General talk. Only those who created this virus know and might have answers, if they are still alive.
@Censorship Ingsoc this chick looks like she’s from Extreme Cheapskates the asian girl who feeds her friends food from the dumpster.
The insanity continues.
If what she is saying is fact, that our current system can not adequately balance its present health care needs. Why are we increasing immigration numbers to an already failing system. Shouldn’t they be finding a balanced module that will control and successfully resolve the present issues, before adding more fuel to the fire.
This government doesn’t run on common sense.

The government is dead set on collapsing the economy for their great RESET. It’s obvious to some, sadly not all.
How about the trajedies of the mental health issues, addiction, job losses, bankruptsies, and deaths caused by the lockdown and other fear policies?
If snowflakes suffering from these things simply respected social distancing and wearing masks, we wouldn’t be in the situation we are in today… maybe stick to your crystals, essential oils and religious nonsense and leave medicine to the experts?
@Liu Kang The lockdown, social distancing, and mask wearing is the cause of these things.
@Liu Kang So you think if everyone followed the rules the virus would be gone? And I don’t know if you went to medical school, but if you did, please tell me which year they cover job losses and bankruptcies caused by economic lockdowns. Oh, and which year they cover pieces of cotton over your face as a way to eradicate viruses.
Totally agree
@Liu Kang Sure, but don’t leave public policy to medical experts, other wise you get a situation like we have.
I watch this news like I look at a counterfeit dollar bill. They both help me realize what a fake is like
No government is going to tell me Christmas is off this year
Lets get drunk together!
Please do your part! No large gatherings sir. We can flatten the curve. Please we all have to sacrifice and do our part
@Larry Campbell is that sarcasm or are you actually serious?
🙄
Just more propaganda about a supposed virus that hasn’t fulfilled koch’s postulates for viruses.
Everything is difficult for her she has to go
I’d still rather be in my own shoes than hers or Castros. They’re fate is far worse than ours.
She’s right. Christmas will be different this year I’m having my kitchen redone. How did Dr. Tam know?
Fabulous!! Nothing better than a brand new kitchen!
If masks work, open everything up and just wear masks.
