where did i say that?



Was implied. Asymptomatic people are a huge part of this puzzle. Hence why it makes plenty sense to get tested even if showing little to no symptoms.

Western Canada in particular is starting to show progress.

Besides Calgary you are seeing fairly low numbers compared to Eastern Provinces/Cities.

I am not sure why they are experiencing higher numbers, perhaps someone could explain it to me a bit better. I know large production facilities ramped up the numbers but that still does not explain the gap fully.



I gave it some thought and I will finally visit my Grandma outside on a backyard patio. It has been almost three months....

May have beers with 1-2 friends outside at a distance. I think that is reasonable.

Weather is supposed to be meh this long weekend... Maybe it is a blessing. I don't want hoards of people gathering at the beaches anyways.

east got fucked because Quebec had an early spring break, the worst time possible to travel out of the country. once travelers came back they brought back coronavirus from all over the place.

and some luck too. considering BC has a large Chinese population and had tons of American tourists up until the border closed it's a miracle Victoria/Vancouver didn't experience a big outbreak.

With YVR being an international hub I would agree it is a miracle. I can't imagine how many came to the airport from international locations and used the skytrain. That alone could have sent the numbers through the roof.

we have a lot of travel related cases and close contact cases from the travelers we also have a bunch of long term care homes with breakouts
ontario has pretty high amount of cases on record but we have a 75% recovery rate as well
the death rate might seem high at 8% but when you factor in the long term care homes and fact that 43% of cases are aged 60+(about 10k cases) that doesnt seem so bad imo older people are more likely to die to it as unfortunate as it is its the truth

i dont think ontario is doing great but i think they are doing much better then people in other provinces think tbh people see 21k cases and there like omg thats so many but we have 75% of those already recovered
to me quebec seems to be the worst hit the got the most cases most deaths and lowest recovery rate idk wtf is going on over there but they better step their game up

The meat plants do explain the explosions though, 1000+ from the Cargill plant, and I think close to that from Brooks. It’s just luck really. Montreal has more traffic from France and is getting hammered, but Van has more from China, so it doesn’t make much sense outside of dumb luck.
