Thank you for the media articles.

It appears the writers may have short memories. In Canada much, if not most of the business difficulties were caused by government, not a pathogen.

Mr. Trudeau elected to put thousands on the CERB dole, with many of them finding that the CERB paid better than being in employment, so effectively paying people with printed money to sit on their posteriors, despite 'hiring' signs popping up everywhere.

Biden and his trillions of printed money handed out as covid 'relief' also helped people sitting on their bums instead of going back to work. Legions of teachers in the USA and Canada are milking this to the max, and still being paid (by us!) instead of getting their lazy asses back to work.

Nurses and docs and assorted staff being fired or 'encouraged' to quit or take the jabby.

Same with truckers in Canada and the USA. The mainstream had articles on truckers being told jabby or go. Plain as day, our Canadian goods entering the states via truck, driver doesnt have or want the jabby? 1 less trucker. Id imagine its the same the other way.

Trudeau said all who enter from the USA must be jabbied. So that includes truckers carrying vegetables from California and US originating goods. No truckers? No goods, no supply, no goods on the shelves at Loblaws.

Seeing as the vast majority of those dying from covid are retired (death numbers affect the elderly the most) the labour force is mostly being affected by various gov interfercences in the free market, and the abiity of people to trade with one another without gov poking their nose in.

The jabby papers for restaurants is an illustration. Also many restaurants and hotels, resorts are saying to workers get the jabby or quit. I know this from personal experience. I travelled to BC lately for a break and some golf. I booked some time and a room at a golf resort in the BC interior. On arrival I found I had to show 'papers' to gain entry to the course, and even my hotel/golf resort room. All their workers had to have the jabby too. How many of them quit?

I could not, and would not. They were good enough to refund my money and i went elsewhere.

All (or certainly most) of this supply hoo ha is caused by government spiteful contantly changing array of 'regulations', rules, curfews and the like.

One would think that our gov doesnt actually want small businesses to survive. It's okay for Messers Trudy and co. They still get paid even if we don't.
