You still take that risk every day that is greater than covid.

How long will you advocate for your government to keep you locked down? What is the number of acceptable covid deaths per day where you will no longer wish to have your freedoms removed?

Please provide us with a number.

Thank you.
Seriously are you just making this up? 42,060 people were killed in car accidents in the US in 2020....

This is what we're talking about, not all virus deaths from last year.

Keep wishing for your government to call the shots in your life. It's bizarre, but I guess you're okay with it.
So you do just make stuff up...848 deaths May 12, seven day average 629... (629 X 365 days = 229,585 deaths)...A few more than the risk of dying in a car accident, would you agree?

As a Canadian, let me answer...Absolutely not It's frustrating to me that there are posters here that no matter how often I provide evidence to the contrary still insist that Canadians have long waits for urgent healthcare.

Well, how was your wait time for the vaccine?

USA has 10x more people vaccinated today per capita. And growing.

Talking about Canada. Really, then why say this? "In the USA they are falling dramatically."

Yes, please re-read. I said Canada has a few dozen per day.....AND in the USA, the rates are falling dramatically.

You mis-read it.

So, you avoided the question. I guess that means you admit your wait time is LOOOOONG?

3% of Canadians are vaccinated.

Why? How could your next door neighbor, with "inferior" healthcare, be doing 10x + better than than that?

Never thought to ponder?
