But that's too vague. It all depends on the exact nature of what the "more government" is. Better government in place to deal with pandemic emergencies? Ok sounds good. More research into diseases? Ok sounds good. But squid wants to use this crisis as an excuse to nationalize key sectors of the economy.
This crisis also proves that everyone should have a month or 2 of income in savings in case some emergency likes this happens so they can pay for food and bills if they lose all income.
I'm talking about taxing so that we can have the society most Canadians seem to want. Better funded health with pharma-care et al, an already established emergency benefit system, etc, etc.
