JBen, almost everyone has the same concerns as you. Not much we can do but practice the measures that we are told to.
I’m pissed too, but the blame is not only for politicians, it’s on all of us. Western society is fat, rich, entitled and we are going to get a taste of what we have been seeing on the news for decades. Buckle down and take care of our own, and each other as best we can.
Cdn Dollar 69.45 not good
Switched a bunch of Canadian $ to American money, and transference it to my U.S. account a couple of weeks ago.. Every little bit helps. I am supposed to have a hip replaced in May, not looking good for that.
Thanks.Quote:

Its possible and I literally just talked about this with owner of a convenience store in small town Ontario. Municipalities may need to do something similar with land taxes. The Feds have already pushed back income taxes to June, trying to buy people time and the ability to weather this. As soon as I brought that up, he said...you know, I've never missed paying my suppliers, never failed to pay a bill, but a couple times I have been late on my land taxes trying to break even.....
Canadian crude select $10.00 a barrel. Damn barrel cost more Alberta is going to hurt
25bil in aid isn’t going to go very far
Coronavirus tax in the future?
Sadly there is far to many self entitled people who still think this a big joke. I have family members who are laughing at this all, making fun of it. I wont feel sorry for them in the future not in the least. They wont be getting any help from me if needed. These very same people will be the type that cause social collapse if it happens, because they refuse to face reality from living high on the hog on easy street far to long, so this type of thing could never happen to them. Some are still down south enjoying the warmth sending selfies holding Corona beers and poking fun at us all.
I think I heard that insurance companies for snow birds are dropping coverage after a certain amount of time if they don't come home.
One fellow my brother works with went to Mexico last week. His wife is in health care and is staying home for 14 days. The guy called his boss to see if he should stay home and the boss said see you Monday! Co-workers are not impressed. Then the boss says at lunch time if he should make the guy eat somewhere else. Too late!
