The numbers from yesterday :
Canada 4965 new cases, 69 deaths
US 204,179 new cases, 1998 deaths
Hardly seems like a situation you should be criticizing Canada's Covid efforts. Canada's population is roughly a ninth of the US with much of the same logistical complexity as the US. Exact same urban/rural split ( around 70% ).
In terms of outbreak intensity, it is only heightened in certain areas of Canada right now. All in Western Canada although the death totals in Quebec seem high at times ( but new cases have levelled off ). Now here's the rub for Americans. In the first wave, Covid in Eastern Canada and the North East US front ran what was about to happen in the Southern US. This weeks US outbreaks were right on expectations. Canada is taking appropriate action now ( and last month ) to make sure the worst forecasts don't occur. I see little evidence this is occurring in a huge portion of the US, and your idiot President is too busy fighting non-existant "election fraud" to care. Not hard to see what may happen next.
Whatever occurs in Canada, will no doubt hit you worse. If you want to highlight Canada's issues, you are in for a shocking time period in the US in comparison. What you do about it is up to you. Don't be a "Jem" whining about his kid not being in school when the schools are open in Canada. Don't bitch and complain when you are still not willing to use proper safety precautions and take on restrictions when needed. Vaccines are coming; allowing huge numbers of people to die needlessly when they are just around the corner is immoral and unnecessary. Guess we'll see what happens, it's already messy in El Paso and North/South Dakota are seemingly a disaster.
