Trust me, come to BC in summer, you will fall in love with it.
I'd love to have a cabin there. I can't do winter there. I am from the rocky mountains of Colorado, I know cold. I don't like cold. That's why I live in San Diego. I hunt in Alaska. Even in the summer you better expect the unexpected.
Covid, because of a very aggressive vax program and the fact that we were just about the worst state in the US for it so there may be 40% who already had it, is very low in Arizona right now. But yeah, you pretty much nailed them. Kinda surprised me. I did not think Canadians were as dumb as Americans on average.
Well I don't know about on average
However we have them here too. Anti-vaxxers, and people who think this is all made up.
I actually met one yesterday, a neighbour.
Small talk, asking me how I was. Said I was concerned about the new variants and how they seem to be affecting younger healthy people much harder, so much so they need to be hospitalized. He responded that that is all made up. He left before I could as him for his " proof ".
Especially since this is a big story currently in Vancouver.
"“This is a stark reminder of how quickly the virus can spread and its serious impact, even among healthy, young athletes.â€
I just talked with my Canuck neighbor who is here for the winter. He is afraid to go back cuz the covid is so widespread, but won't get a shot which is readily available to him around here out of fear. Between a rock and a hard head, I guess.
The twit should have stayed at home. He deserves to be stuck between a rock and a hard place (I grew up in Canada; I'm allowed to say that).

Oh, I know. Just search on YouTube for anti-masker meltdowns (let alone anti-vaxxers) in Canada. Plenty of idiots to watch.
Canada has no problems with CDC's warnings. I think Canada's citizens would rather just throw away the keys to the border and lock it up for good and say good riddance to anyone wanting in and harming them.
Canada is so rich and has such a healthy budget they probably could just lose the entire tourist industry and not have any bad effects.
$39 billion is a fair amount. That’d be like 10x that in the US.
That's about 2% of Canada's GDP. Our latest stimulus was 2% of USA GDP.
Lots and lots of negative press about that amount. Huge difference, though - it was once.
Canada would be doing it over and over again. It's a huge amount.
