Weren't the leftists begging "lock us down daddy!" I don't understand their backlash against him for the "papers please" and locking down playgrounds, parks and outdoor recreation. I thought that is what they wanted.
It blows my mind that 57% of self-identified right-wing people like Doug Ford. This goes to show that Canadian conservatism is very different from American conservatism.
It isn't locking down the playgrounds that set them off, it was allowing the police to stop and question people. Anything close to "carding" is no bueno for leftists.
Either way, Doug Ford is a complete moron. They were always going to turn on him at some point, no matter what he did.
It's bizarro world when Mr. COVID Zero Dr. Isaac Bogoch and I agree on something. He scratches his head over closing playgrounds and outdoor recreation and I agree with him that sick pay for essential workers during a pandemic would make sense. Considering how much tax revenue Ontario lost from lockdowns and how much money they are spending on security theatre, paying sick essential workers to stay home for 2 weeks don't seem so bad. We already have tens of billions of dollars in provincial deficits from this pandemic. Along with the hundreds of billions in the federal deficits.
I would much rather we just not lock down at all and not have the taxpayer give sick pay to essential workers. But if the government is going to do lockdowns over a virus with a 99.5% survival rate, it's cheaper to incentivize sick workers to stay home than to throw more people into the unemployment rolls.
The average Canadian is a fucking retarded ape with the attention span of a goldfish.
When I pointed out to my dad that COVID deaths per day were highest in April 2020 and higher during the "second wave" (January 2021) than now, he was shocked. Because when you listen to CP24 all day, you start to think that the variants are literally the Spanish Flu.
I would prefer the communists over the fake conservatives because the commies are actually more honest, even if their policies are dogshit.

Ford is just in the wrong party. Pure tribalism.
