In a way I shouldn't be surprised. I live in the 905. Ontario is full of suburban Karens who want low taxes but are super concerned with safety. So Doug Ford is seen as the lesser evil to people like this. They don't want their taxes to go up. They don't want to have to deal with inflation. But they are absolutely terrified of the WuFlu. So they see Doug Ford as the better option. Canadian conservatism is really not the same thing as American conservatism.
This is so retarded.
There is a huge difference between Hamilton having 656 weekly cases per 536,917 people (122/100,000) vs. Algoma Public Health (Sault Ste. Marie + surrounding towns) having 1 weekly case per 113,084 people.
A 14 day lockdown for Northern Ontario makes zero sense. And having a 28 day lockdown for all of Southern Ontario is also retarded. If you want to lock down Niagara, Halton, etc. because you're afraid that people in Windsor-Essex, Peel, Toronto, York and Hamilton are gonna go to these surrounding regions, that's one thing. But all of Southern Ontario? Really? You think I'm gonna drive 5 hours to go to Sudbury or Ottawa to eat out at a restaurant (or Tinder thot pussy)?
The left uses emotional arguments to advocate for lockdowns. So I actually think statistics are useful to refute the left. Like the median age of those who died with COVID is 85 in Peel and it's around there for most of the rest of Canada. The left usually follows by saying that old lives matter too. I follow up by asking people if it's moral for the old to eat the young and they don't respond to that. Or they start resorting to ad hominem attacks instead of attacking your argument by that point.
When the median age of death with COVID is 85, it's basically a bad flu. What's the median age of death for flu? Probably about the same. My granpa died of pneumonia at 85. And I don't recall my parents freaking the fuck out about that. When I saw him on his death bed, I just saw it as a situation where an old person was dying. And I accepted that as a part of life.
My dad (whose 72 and has prostate cancer. But he went through his treatment, his PSA levels are normal now, his cancer cells shrunk. He is in good health other than that. His cancer is symptomless) is terrified of WuFlu. And his life is literally eat, sleep, shit, piss, watch TV, garden (not now because it's too cold outside), lmao. So he is totally for the lockdowns. And it drives me nuts.
I have been shamed by members of my own family for seeing my girlfriend for fear that I'm gonna catch the virus and put my dad in the ICU or cemetery. The level of emotional manipulation and gaslighting that young people have to deal with during this "pandemic" is insane. I have been called selfish by my own family for fucking my gf. lol.
It shouldn't shock me that our society is having the old eat the young. Since that is essentially what CPP and Social Security (in the US) is. Pensions are a ponzi scheme where the young pay for the old.
my wife has heard from a lady whos husband is a cop for NRPS. they are not enforcing lockdown for christmas, so thats nice. by law officers might still enforce it, but you can tell then to get off your property
Kinda works for him. The Conservatives in Ontario have like a 20 point lead currently over the NDP and the Liberals.
It's not just approval rating. Election polls put the Conservatives in Ontario at around 43%. The NDP and the Liberals are around 20 to 25%.

The scared people are the people who don't understand numbers, who actually are afraid of numbers because they are math-illiterate.
There's two groups going along here - the conflict-avoidant and the very scared. I agree, stats won't help either of those groups.
Never underestimate a what a thirsty male liberal cuck will to for a 0.5 percent chance at pussy.
We’ve had 9 months to figure out the hospital capacity, absolutely retarded.
