Their position is that you shouldn't be allowed to leave your house for non-essential reasons so that you don't give them the virus when they leave their house for essential reasons.
I disagree with their position because I'm sick of being on house arrest. Social isolation is not good for mental health. Mass unemployment is not good for society. It's been 9+ months of this social distancing shit. Even when the government first made it legal to meet people outside your household back in the summer, my family buying into the CNN propaganda was shaming me for going to see my gf. "You're going to catch the virus and kill your dad." And since November 23rd it's been illegal to meet people outside your household in Toronto and Peel again.
I don't see how printing a bunch of money while reducing the number of goods and services available for purchase due to lockdowns is going to help the economy. I have seen grocery prices go up at the supermarkets. McDonald's value menu is more expensive. These big corporations see all the CERB, CEBA money that people are getting and think to themselves, "I'm going to raise prices and get myself a piece of that."
I have noticed utility prices go up too. Water, electricity, telecom, probably heating too.

We already have a big recession.
