Yes Shifty, you totally pwned me with that March 2020 article. Not March 2021. I have no problem - and do myself - day trips to local provincial park, and what a great counterpoint to travelling on vacation to Mexico! Well done! But whatever, I'm not feeling the mood (see my next post) so you win this one

Guys, I'm crushed. Lost my mentor to covid19. 45 years old, got it while in hospital for something unrelated. An absolute icon in the canadian math community, and personally just a massive loss. Without them I probably wouldn't be a math professor teaching in Canada.

That sucks uke, sorry to hear that.

Yeah, it seems pretty clear that Canada has ****ed this all up from day one, which is why we have some of the worst numbers in the world, and especially in the western world...oh, wait...

It's wild how you go back and forth on this stuff - it's like you want to take both sides of arguments. Or am I wrong in thinking that you have said previously that you're good with the decision to delay the second dose to get more first doses out there? That's how we've become one of the world leaders in first doses. If you're good with that plan, why would you then call the 3.5% a sad state? If you were never good with the plan, then my mistake, sorry.

If you mean another pandemic, you might want to let them finish up with this one first and then step back and see what went well and what didn't, before planning for the next one.

Right, I sometimes leave out parts of posts I'm not responding to. I wasn't really commenting on what you said about JT.

Sorry to hear that . To young

I still do not know anyone in my circle that has caught Covid

So I have a question on the carbon tax. So we all pay a carbon tax on fossil fuels we consume weather its natural gas, fuel, coal and I am unsure about electricity.
Here are my questions
Rebates are based solely on ones income not on the amount of carbon they consume on an individual level?
Do businesses receive any rebates ?

Restrictions to lift once 75% get 1st dose and 20% get 2nd. Also british study finds increasing pfizer dose to 3 months increased immunity in 80 years and over upto 3.5 times

Thank you

It depends on whose plan it is. For the liberals, the core point is to create an incentive program that moves people away from carbon intensive activities. So while it is a net positive for most families (and 90% revenue neutral overall), it is unequally applied. Someone who uses a lot of carbon in their lives could be a net loser and someone who uses very little a big net winner. This is what causes those shifts towards less carbon intensive economic use. For businesses as opposed to individuals its more complex and depends on the type of business, but the most common benefit businesses will get is big rebates for things like energy efficient equipment.

This is all in contrast with the conservative "plan" which makes basically zero economic sense. For them, you get back whatever you pay, which means there is no real incentive to change behaviour. If you are charged 1000 dollars by the tax, you get 1000 back. Its really just pointless. It is a net loss because of the massive infrasructure needed to create a personal "points card" that is used at any business with a carbon tax thing, and then the money has all these strings attached to it like you can spend it on only certain things.

Here's everyone's quick reminder that, as usual, Alberta makes everything worse. Complain about Trudeau's border choices all you want (which seem to alternate between being way to strict and way to lenient depending on which way it helps some criticize trudeau), but Alberta is completely ****ing up the existing restrictions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2JFIkMjc1k

Now your stating something supports my position that everyone agrees on Alberta particular Jason Kenney has done such a horrible job that it required a federal mandate to protect us from Jason Kenney

Saskatchewan also doesn't. Quebec adopted the act but does not enforce and has yet to give a ticket.

Plus all those private planes

Though like everything bad Justin will breath deeply say were concerned and do nothing

Are you ppl still bitching abt canadian citizens being allowed to enter canada?

yes

Well then you're ridiculous

yes

Just the COVID fanatics.

Canada's cases down 20% last 7 days. No thanks to anti vaccine dumbasses. If it was upto them this would last forever

44% have received have received their first dose with just 3.7% fully vaccinated- a number that is due to sky rocket over the next few months

They've been fully open for close to 3 months, selling out stadiums. And we can't even get haircuts.

Ik it's fun to play but what abt them. But texas has administered 21 million doses with a population of 29 million

Canada as a whole country has administered 18.4 million lolcanada indeed
Ontario gave out abt 7 million doses with a population of 14.5 million

We are a few months behind

Hey, goes to show you what can be done when they get rid of an idiot like Trump and install competent people to spearhead an attack on a virus with the most money in the world and the production capability to be effective in that battle.

Canada did not have production, which people can blame whoever they like. Lozen will blame Trudeau before blaming him about a glass he dropped the other day. You can blame whomever you like.

In a weird way Canada may have fared "better" if Trump was re-elected because the push for Americans being vaccinated would have been much lower, particularly with "herd immunity through infection" Atlas guy in charge. In that alternative timeline more vaccine would have come to Canada sooner, but overall the tradeoff of a few extra months is worth it for the current timeline.

Also:

Texas population 29 million total cases 3 million total deaths over 51,000

Canada population 38 million total cases 1.3 million total deaths 25,000

Yeah, Texas wins...

Another General another sexual allegation . Reports indicate Justin is concerned

Well lets be accurate as I do blame Trudeau for many things the fact we do not have vaccine production in Canada is the fault of many governments. Yes I am sure when he got elected he could have worked to restore vaccination production was anyone really thinking global pandemic other than Dr Tam that wrote a paper on such a pandemic. I think the key now is a government that works to bring vaccination production back to Canada.

As for getting rid of the Idiot Trump he did deliver under his presidency the quickest vaccine development done. Yes he did not invent the vaccine himself just as Joe Biden did not inject the vaccine in every individual. Lets be clear as well Texas and Florida are fully open but seem to have a case rate and death rate equal to NY & California.

Will I continue to keep bashing Trudeau for his lack of action on Sexual misconduct in the military ? Of course I will as if he truely was as concerned as he says he is he would remove the defense minister and implement all the recommendations from the previous judges report issued 6 years ago which he did nothing on.

Cheers
