Default Hey Snide

How is Canada doing with the issues of the day? I’m too lazy to look it up. Protests? Riots? Dumb****ery?

Dumb****ery at the government level, yes. As far as riots and protests, I haven't heard any more than what has been reported here.

My son in Montreal doesn't venture out of his apartment in Montreal much, and he doesn't watch TV news, so I don't really know what is going on up there.

The border is still shut down for non-essential travel.

You thinking of moving to Canadia?

On the upside, you'll have less Canuckistans clogging up your roads this coming winter.

I'm chatting with my son in Montreal. He is telling me that there have been 8,800 deaths out of 35,000,000 people. I know I'm shitty at math, but that looks like a 0.000251428% death rate to me. Best to shut down the country!

More than eight in 10 Canadians surveyed in a new Ipsos poll said they want to keep the U.S.-Canada border closed till at least the end of 2020.

Hesitation to travel during the coronavirus pandemic is also high among the respondents: 93 per cent of those surveyed in the poll, conducted exclusively for Global News, said it would be too risky to travel to the U.S. this summer.

Racist, anti-mask tirade at Asian supermarket in Mississauga goes viral

The nearly four-minute video appears to show a man berating employees at a Mississauga T & T Supermarket when he’s asked to wear a mask inside the store. Kamil Karamali reports.

Nope, not at all. Home of Shania Twain, I think that's why they like it up there.

Mother Theresa protesting is more of a threat than Canucks rioting

So no more proposals at the NCM this year?
