[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean, you do you. At least you recognize your privilege.

As a single person in a 600 square foot condo, I hated lockdowns, and I never really followed them in the sense that you stay literally indoors in your home. Yeah, screw that. Fine with me if you like staying home, but don’t you dare impose that on my vaccinated, mask-complient arse.  No I will not stay home. [/quote]

Big talker. You will stay home if you are ordered to by law. That’s what was missing from the last lockdown. No teeth in the order. [b]Next time we’ll go the Canadian route. Get caught outside, go to jail, stay in jail for the duration of the lockdown.[/b] [/quote]

We spent the pandemic in Canada. This did not happen. Stop watching Fox news and get a grip. We went for daily walks and runs, ate on patios last summer while cases were very low (single digit per day in the province), and spent lots of time in parks. It was all legal. The head of Public Health in British Columbia actively encouraged people to go outside.

Ontario had a brief period of time where outdoor movement was restricted (it was removed shortly after due to backlash) but walks and runs were still allowed, and Quebec had an evening curfew. The punishment for breaking these rules were fines, not jail time. No one went to jail and most enforcement was "education" i.e. the cops tell someone to go home and only fine them if they refuse. British Columbia, Alberta, and Atlantic provinces never restricted going outside. [/quote]
