Covid19
February 15, 2021
As you might've surmised by the picture above, some serious border controls have been introduced in various parts of the world, recently. The most stringent being in the UK, which came into effect today apparently. Since there's a rather steep fine and or jail time associated with breeching the laws surrounding that border control mandate, I thought everyone visiting the blog ought to be made aware of it, in case they have travel plans to the UK.
There's new rules in effect for people coming into Canada today as well. I do believe it's for those crossing the land border between our country and the US. There shall be more about this in the news stories posted below. So keep your eyes peeled if you need that particular information.
Anyhow, I hope everyone had a nice Valentine's Day with their significant other. I know I did. We had planned to have something specific for supper, but wound up having something else entirely - which was an awesome surprise to me as it's my all time favourite meal, which up until yesterday I had to rely on my own recipes I concocted for it, because I didn't know the real recipe (I was close but no cigar). All I had wrong though was I was using Sherry instead of vinegar in the recipe. Anyhow I found the recipe, online, from one of the family members of the restaurant that invented and served this recipe. When I made it as per their recipe, it was awesome! Now I don't have to go back to NS just to get a decent serving of it, I can make it in my own kitchen now. That is so awesome!
But what's even more awesome is my husband agreed to have some with me, for dinner, because he is not a big lover of fish or seafood, so a hot lobster sandwich isn't his thing. He's more of a smoked meat sandwich guy.
Hmmmm, I just noticed something..... Both of our favourite sandwiches are regional to the areas where we grew up. I'm from SW NS, which is where that lobster sandwich was invented and he's from the Montreal area, where Smoked Meat originates.
If anyone wants the recipe to that lobster sandwich there's a link to it on my Valentine's page - just click on the Valentine's label in the right hand side bar to get there.
Then afterwards we watched a movie together with a glass of wine in hand. That was our pandemic lockdown Valentine's celebration. Normally we'd go out to a restaurant where we could enjoy a good meal and a drink in a nice ambience.
Now on with the neverending news about this dreaded disease and all the fallout from it....
Challenges to Covid-19 Lockdowns Have Been Mostly Losing in Court This is bad, bad news. If they're losing in the US, they'll never fly in Canada, because in the US the courts actually knows what their constitution says and means, whereas in Canada the whole entire judicial system from the courts on down to lawyers have no f'n clue what it says or means or how to interpret it or defend it, apparently because everytime there's a case that someone wants to bring to court because of the constitutionality involved in the case, it's a big deal just to find a lawyer who can do that. Then the judges have to deliberate on it forever before making a decision of any kind so it could be decades before we'd know if our laws breached our civil rights as defined in our constitution. Meanwhile they've rotted in the jail cell forever, if they refuse to grant them bail.
Even despite the much hyped vaccination campaign? Hmmmm..... Wondering why....
COVID-19: More than a quarter of adults struggling financially as pandemic bites - poll That's sad. Considering it's ALL the gov't's fault 1) because they didn't act soon enough to close their borders to all incomers when the plandemic first started and 2) because it was by their mandates that people were forced to shut down their businesses causing all of this hardship. So it should be the gov't that pays these people to support them during this time!!!! Not charities and other organizations but the ones directly responsible for all this BS, namely the governments!!!!! Not just in the UK either, but all the gov'ts who can be tarred with the same brush. Like this book
Snakes and Ladders: The great British social mobility myth depicts, to the ruling elite it's all just a game, they let you climb so high on the socio-economic ladder and then whoops that's it, you're back down on the ground again. I think they play that game all over the western world, because they're very adept at playing it in North America too as the next story demonstrates....
Again very sad! And I applaud Biden for giving them some relief in the form of a $1,400 cheque, but in the case of these people I think it's going to take much more than that to get them at least in some form of secure shelter with enough food to eat. And same as I just said above, it should be the gov'ts responsibility to take care of them since it's the gov't's negligence and then resulting policies that caused them to be in this position in the first place! So the gov't is the guilty party here (no matter who the president was at the time) and they need to fix it, but in the meantime they also need to help the people that were worst affected by their negligence and lousy decisions.
The science behind why hobbies can improve our mental health Without even reading this article I can tell you why they help me. First they give me something to focus my attention and mind on while I'm working on them. I mean you have to watch what you're doing when you're using dremels, utility knives, hot wax, woodburning tools, sewing needles or machines, or knitting patterns - counting stitches and rows and paying attention to all the various stitch instructions. (And yes I actually use all those things, along with a lot of other tools, materials and machines in my crafts) You can't afford to let your mind wander - you have to stay focused. So if you're staying focused and concentrating on what you're doing, you aren't thinking about other things. Plus once you complete your project, it gives you a sense of satisfaction and if others compliment you on it, a sense of pride as well. That's why I enjoy making things (not just crafts but food items as well, from a jar of chutney or jam, to jerky, or bread to a sumptuous feast for guests.) It gives me not only something to do but something else to focus my mind on so I can forget about what's going on out there in the world for a little while.
I hope they get the answers they're looking for and if they do they share them with the rest of the world, so we all know.
Families could get stimulus checks every month, starting this summer Not sure if they have family allowance in the US or not, already. If not this may be their excuse to implement one, in order to come more in line with what Canada has. I mean after all if we're going to make one happy hemisphere under the
OAS (Organization of American States) then eventually we'll all have to align our policies one way or another, if it's going to be anything like the EU in the end.
To bad they don't say why, because from what I read here, there's no reason for a stay or acquittal either for that matter.
How much are Schwab & Gates paying you to be their front man for them? I hope it's worth it in the end.
Except "some" countries in the G7 have NO VACCINE with which to do that! Or did you conveniently forget that the EU blocked shipments of the vaccine even to Canada and the US won't share any of it's vaccines with us..... So um yeah so much for partnerships and allies. With friends and allies like the likes of you hypocritical clowns, who needs f'n enemies anyhow?????
Talk about overkill. Nfld & Lab are HUGE areas, separated by ocean, requiring ferries to traverse from one area to the other or back to Canada's mainland. So if a variant was found in St. John's for instance, why are you shutting down the entire province? Why not just shut down the highways that leads from St. John's to anywhere else, that way Corner Brook and Portes aux Basques aren't affected by this stupidity too, especially if there's no need for them to be affected by it. Not to mention Anthony's and Gander and the rest of the province, or Labrador City for that matter. I just find it incredibly draconian when gov'ts do this, especially for no explicable reason.
Taking Valentine's Day safety to heart Yup, you're supposed to SOCIALLY distance yourselves, so remember that. Can't be developing any kind of social bonds, doncha know that? That's what socially distancing is all about and lockdown and quarantine - being cut off from emotional support groups and those that care about us and those we care about. Has nothing to do with staying 6 feet away from each other because if it did, people wouldn't be acting the way they do in stores.
You want to talk about power tripping and abuse of power???? Here's a prime example. The cops weren't happy enough with handing out the tickets to the couple in the car, they had to follow them to their destination and then try to get inside but couldn't without a warrant which they got and then went in the house to ticket everyone inside too. Wow, just wow.... That's not exactly what I call fair and unbiased here. Like the clowns driving with their lights off after curfew and the cops searching their car for all the weapons and everything else they found. They might've had a leg to stand on in court about that if they weren't caught driving with their lights off, but since they were the cops could use that as a reasonable excuse for search and seizure and arrest too. But following a couple that's already been ticketed for something in order to give them another ticket???? That's like following someone who was caught speeding in order to give them another ticket the moment they're one kilometer over the speed limit. I think that's called harassment. Anyhow.... Just f'n WOW.
Ontario unveils more reopening details as 3rd wave fears grow I don't live in Ontario, but if I did, I'd be demanding that these reopenings are pemanent, no matter how many dozens more waves we have to face. Because I get the feeling that a lot of these "new strains" are merely more means of scaring us into compliance and letting them shut things down and cage us up in our houses for even longer. If we don't stand up to them and refuse to be put back in our cages every few weeks, we'll have wave after wave after wave and this will go on forever, like the waves in the ocean. They'll just never end. So at some point people are going to have to stand their ground and refuse to be put under lockdown anymore . And the only reason anyone should allow themselves to be put under quarantine is if they have the disease themselves or know of someone who does and they were in contact with them. Otherwise F that noise too and defy the hell out of it. Because it's getting ridiculous now, here in QC where cops ticket someone and then follow them so they can not only ticket them again but everyone else in the house where they went. That's called police state and police abuse and harassment and that's what all other places will wind up being if they let the authorities (aka gov't) have that much leeway. So before you get there, stop it and stop it in it's tracks. You're lucky in Ontario that Ford isn't as much of a power tripping dictator as Legault is here in QC, that's all I've got to say about that.
We just had some sczechuan food at home, with some sake and that was our muted celebration this year. Normally we'd have gone to the restaurant for such an event, but alas it wasn't open so we couldn't go and could only order. It was better than nothing and gave us a little something to celebrate to change the mood from monotony, boredom and apathy towards the plandemic and anger towards the govts, to something a little happier and nicer.
While my son's wife is a nurse and she's not in danger of losing her job anytime soon on account of the plandemic, his work life has been a bit precarious, given that he's an interior architect/designer and also a professor teaching 3d design via AutoCad. Because for a while all construction was shut down that meant there was no demand for interior designers or architects and because all schools were shut down or went online in the spring, for a while he wasn't teaching at all and then he was but online. But that took almost his entire waking life because what he teaches is complicated and so he had to allow a certain period of time after class per student for them to get help if they needed it. I forget how much time he had to allot to each student but he said he wound up basically spending 16 hour days with the class online and then he still had to grade their work afterwards (which he did on weekends). So he was basically only getting paid for 1/4 of the amount of time he worked. Which he wasn't too happy about and I don't blame him. Since his motorcycle accident he hasn't been able to walk without crutches and a boot cast, and so hasn't really gone anywhere. Fortunately for him I guess, he has a partner that works with him and so does all the running around and our son does all the design work and other "paper work" (mostly done on computers with no paper involved, but you get the idea). So while he didn't lose his job per se, he did lose a lot of business and a large portion of his work was unpaid because of the plandemic. But it caused a great deal of anxiety and uncertainty for him and his wife because of their finances, as CNA nurses (which is what she is - it's equivalent to an LPN in the US I guess) they don't make a ton of money. You'd think they made more than they do, but basically it's the same rule of thumb as it was when I was a nurse - 2x whatever the minimum wage is. That's the basic salary. When you look at the training involved, the responsibilities (I mean legal liabilities they face if things go wrong, or a doctor wishes to lay the blame at the nurse's feet), all the sheite (literally and figuratively speaking) they deal with and abuse they take from anxious angry relatives to belligerent patients or male patients with grabby paws that you just want to smack but can't. I mean to me it just wasn't worth the paltry sum I was getting paid to put up with that, but she is and all I can say is she deserves way more than she's getting. So do all nurses. But there were times when he had no work because the construction was stopped that they were worried about things because they had to rely on what she was making which wasn't much more than double the minimum wage.
Seriously???? You clowns make it sound like we never administered vaccinations en masse before!!!! I guess most journalists were only born after 2009 when H1N1 went through eh???? So now we have 12 & 13 year olds in charge of our vaccination campaigns and news media do we???? No wonder they don't know how to do it. Look you bunch of inbred idiots (gawd, it's incredible how f'n stupid everyone's gotten all of a sudden) if we could vaccinate all 35 or 37 million Cdns in 3-4 months max for H1N1, I'm pretty sure we could do it again for the Coronavirus, if we really wanted to. Trouble is, it seems like everyone's pretending they have mass amnesia and dithering and dancing about it as a means of procrastinating the rollout, for some reason. And I'm sure it's not a good reason either.
Hmmmm wondering why.... Does he know about something to do with it, that no one else does?
Ummmm.... Either because they don't exist or they're not so much deals as they are raw deals? Could either of those be the reason? I'd go with the first reason as in they don't exist.
Canada is 'playing chicken' with COVID-19 by reopening while variants are spreading widely Apparently there's 4,000 variants that scientists are aware of. So if we were to keep our economies shut while each of those took a turn at sauntering through our population, the economy would sink and collapse and never revive or relaunch again. So at some point we're just going to have to suck it up and open up and hope for the best. But if we're removing the restrictions on businesses we should be removing ALL restrictions on everyone for everything. Because it's not fair forcing someone to risk their lives just to go to work, without having any opportunity to enjoy their lives outside of work. After all it is their life and if they want to do something they should be allowed, even if it means putting their life at danger - after all it's their life to live and die as they please.
I hope these passport thingies are just temporary until the vast majority are vaccinated and there's a herd immunity thing going on. Because the passport I proposed a year ago was for this very reason, to allow people with immunity to move around unimpinged while the vast majority of people still didn't have immunity and were subject to acquiring the virus and getting sick from it. Just as a temporary measure so that those who were immune wouldn't have to wait months more for everyone else's immunity to be equally protected from the virus, in order to start to live a little and visit others (who were immune or not). That's what I proposed the passport for but it wasn't meant to be digital and definitely not after there was full herd immunity. That after that, the passports would become redundant and just not used anymore or thrown out altogether.
I bet you anything, that IF we did check for strain differences when doing the negative/positive tests we'd have noticed that we have several different strains all uniquely Canadian and have had since the beginning. They say there's 4,000 variants in the world, that they know about. I bet there's a couple dozen or more Canadian strains too, only no one knows about those because no one ever checked for those. In fact Canada never checked for strains at all until the UK said "oh btw, we have a particularly contagious strain floating around here in the UK and have had since September". Then health Canada and the other health depts across the country pulled their pants up and sat up and took notice of what was going on and decided that maybe they should at least check for that strain here in Canada, but only since the recent announcement out of the UK. They didn't go back among the positive samples taken since October to see if there might be any of that strain in those samples. In fact they never looked for various strains before recently. So these growing threats of variants are probably already here and maybe there's more than a couple that are Cdn in origin but we'd never know because of the whole shoddy way this whole plandemic BS has been handled from the get go.
Of course, just as I thought. I'm sure that back in November there were people running around Wuhan with the virus.
My Phony Valentine: Covid Fuels Romance Scams Why not? There's been puppy scams, vaccine scams, cat scams and now this all related to COVID.... Might as well. I'm sure it's not going to be the lst one before this plandemic is over with either.
Did you think they'd abstain from swindling during the plandemic?
I guess Canada's one of the poorer ones then even though we're in the G7.
But again as I stated above, these should only be used until there's mass herd immunity and then after that thrown out.

If this is true it's totally reprehensible! Not only should they be blamed for their actions but held to account for them too! I wonder if this is part of the triage group in QC, that's supposed to be left to die if the hospitals can't handle the amount of patients any more? I'm pretty sure there's age groups in the triage, along with certain health problems other than covid, involved as well, but I wonder if there's other criteria like learning or other disability or perhaps ethnicity? I'm talking about the type of people doctors will be asked to triage to the back of the line if the hospitals become over crowded here in QC. I mean until I saw this article it never even occurred to me that they'd use such classifications for such purposes.
Homebuying Intentions Soar As Canadians Redesign Their Lives For An Era Of Remote Work Yup I know. We've had a couple of real estate agents call us about selling our house and then we had a neighbour come over and ask if we thought about selling our house and if we do to let them know as they'd be interested in buying it. Yeah, sure I'll do that immediately considering I know they won't be able to afford it.... I mean I don't know what's the sudden interest in our house all about..... Anyhow when we do decide to sell it'll be on our terms for our price and if the buyers don't like that, oh well that's their problem not ours. One way or another we have to live somewhere and we might as well continue living here as anywhere else, especially considering we love it here and the only reason we'd sell is so we could get a nicer place, that's all. If we can't afford something nicer after selling this place, then what's the point of it? Might as well stay where we are.

With those 2 things together you're lucky anyone wants to get the vaccine.

Most at risk, first in line: Public health experts say racialized Canadians should be prioritized for vaccines
So basically that leaves the below 65 whites at the end of the line. I mean if you're prioritizing the elderly, the essential service workers, the health care workers, the natives, the criminals, and now the visible minorities, that only leaves the whites below the age of 65, who will find themselves at the back of the line. Talk about reverse racism and prejudices.... Just for your information only 16% of the world population, is of European descent. While the Asian races makes up almost 50% of the population. So who's more at risk of going extinct here? White Canadians or other race Canadians besides blacks who make up 13.x% of the population and the natives who make up a very minor amount? So how about this if you want to go by race, then fine put the Natives first, Blacks second, Whites 3rd and then all the rest behind the Whites!?! That way it would be fair to the population demographics of the planet.
Instead of a universal basic income, governments should enrich existing social programs
I agree and that should also include the seniors pensions as they perhaps have the highest upkeep costs - just to maintain their health on all levels. Not to mention that groceries, gas, rent, and just about everything else that it costs the single young adult making minimum wage, it also costs the senior citizen living on very minimum pensions (usually less than $1,000 a month for single individuals). So if it costs a young person $2.50 for a loaf of bread, it also costs the senior citizen that as well. There aren't any senior citizen discounts on things like food, gas, shelter and the like. So if you can give a young person $2,000 a month to live on you should bloody well be giving single seniors the same damned amount unless their income tax returns show that they earned over a certain amount the prior year.
Considering this is what they had in mind to do: On the other hand, according to a report released by the Office of the Parliamentary Budget Officer in 2020,
the estimated cost of a watered-down version of UBI — called a
guaranteed basic income — covering only low-income, working-age
Canadians (estimated at 9.6 million Canadians between the ages of 18 to
64) would be in range of $47.5 billion to $98.1 billion for a six-month period.
Leaving the senior citizens high and dry without any help yet again. Gawd I hope and pray that when those little self entitled idiots in parliament get to be retirement age that they get next to no money to live on too. That none of them manage 8 years in office and so don't qualify for a cushy gov't pension and instead have to live off the scraps they throw the way of the average Cdn senior citizen. And whoever is in power when they get to be that age, is as callous and stingy with them as they are with the current senior citizens of today. Or maybe with any luck they'll have a reincarnation of Paul Martin as a finance minister and he'll use their pensions to pay off the deficit with. Then they'll find out what it's all about... Hope they like the deschets haute cuisine because they'll have to live on it.

Canada's Wonderland to be COVID-19 vaccination site as mass immunization plans ramp up
Such grandiose plans for such piddly amounts of vaccine that will actually be available at any one time. It doesn't matter if you designate half of Ontario as a mass immunization site, you're not going to have that much more than you're already slated to get. So you really don't need that big of a space really. Unless you plan to use all your doses up in 1 or 2 days. I mean the way you're ramping up you'd think you were getting a gazillion doses a day or something. Gawd all of Canada is only getting 400,xxx doses per week. That's like 40,000 doses per province and even fewer when we take the territories and Nunavut into the equation. I mean gawd use your common sense, why don't you? That works out to about 8,000 jabs a day given per province. So unless your whole entire population is near that theme park, that's just pure unbridled silliness. I mean what about places like Barry? Sudbury? Ottawa? Thunder Bay? Windsor? Kitchener/Waterloo? London? Wawa? They're not all going to want to drive from wherever they live to that theme park. That's for sure.

Israel to ease more COVID curbs, launch leisure 'Green Pass' on Feb. 21 That could've been us, if numbnuts hadn't dropped the ball and let us get sucker punched by Pfizer, Moderna and the EU the way we did. After all we had the vaccine right after the UK (they were the first in the world and we were right behind them by a few days). Israel only started later near the end of December.

Racialized adults on revised federal COVID-19 vaccination priority list Like I said above:
So basically that leaves the below 65 whites at the end of the line. I
mean if you're prioritizing the elderly, the essential service workers,
the health care workers, the natives, the criminals, and now the visible
minorities, that only leaves the whites below the age of 65, who will
find themselves at the back of the line. Talk about reverse racism and
prejudices.... Just for your information only 16% of the world
population, is of European descent. While the Asian races makes up
almost 50% of the population. So who's more at risk of going extinct
here? White Canadians or other race Canadians besides blacks who make up
13.x% of the population and the natives who make up a very minor
amount? So how about this if you want to go by race, then fine put the
Natives first, Blacks second, Whites 3rd and then all the rest behind
the Whites!?! That way it would be fair to the population demographics
of the planet.

Considering you started by denying the need to close the border after the announcement from China about the Wuhan epidemic AND THEN you lied and said we didn't need masks and to wash our hands and SOCIALLY distance and we'll be fine and then suddenly when the rest of the world was making you look like a total clueless dunce, which undoubtedly you are, you decided to follow them with oh you must wear a face mask and socially distance and we'll be fine. Then suddenly we had to all go under lockdown (even though as a doctor you should KNOW that's not how infection control is handled) and we'd all be fine etc...
