Personally, I think that’s brilliant. 

It is going to take rubber bullets and tear gas to get it through some thick skulls that they can’t be in groups.  It’s time to use some “less-lethal” violence to save innocent lives. 

Clearly you still don’t grasp the problem if you think it’s ok for people to ignore these orders.   If these measures upset the conspiratards among us, f*ck ‘em.

For those who have been told to self isolate because they are returning to the country or have been exposed and those who have been told to self quarantine because they have tested positive, I agree with this.

I never said it's ok for people to go out.  People should stay home as much as possible.  There are currently no "orders", there's no laws saying you can't leave your house, and nobody is going to be shooting people with rubber bullets and tear gas when no laws are in place.  But people should stay home.

A month ago I said they should restrict international flights/travel.  I was told that was dumb, I guess because Trump did it.  Now travel is locked down.

Then I said Ron Paul was right to be wary that politicians could use the crisis to power grab, you guys called me a Covidiot conspiracy nut.  Now you guys want people tear gassed and shot with rubber bullets, mass cellphone location surveillance by government, and the government to have unlimited powers to tax and spend and bypass Parliament.  :D

I also said we shouldn't be running deficits the last few years in order to save that money for the next recession.  I've been proven right yet again.  I shouldn't be typing on a message board, I should be running for Prime Minister.

There are orders issued by public health authorities in several provinces. People are subject to fines. In Quebec, one woman who had tested positive and was ordered to stay inside was arrested when she went for a walk.

I see Trump cancelled his daily briefing today and instead went over to see his li'l buddies at Fox knowing they'll happily accept his BS. He goes on to say he thinks all will be right again by Easter, which is just under 3 weeks away. I suspect his followers are in for a big disappointment He'll try to blame the Dems. of course.

Imagine if Trump was asking for emergency powers to bypass Congress.  You'd be freaking out.  As you should.  Hypocrites, the lot of you.

Scheer is right on this one. Pass the spending bill now and get things moving. Bicker about the other stuff later.

Why would trump ask for emergency powers to fight what he thinks is a "hoax"? Luckily we have more intelligent people on our hill.

 This isn’t the USA.  Trudeau isn’t Trump.  Stay focused....

Scott Reid says they need to invade parliament and take back the power!!   ::)

This is why the CPC is harmful to the country....   fringe idiots like Reid.  Scheer was one of them...  he toned it down a bit as leader.

Scott Reid may be an idiot but Scheer is right on this one. Pass the spending bill and talk about the rest later. If the Liberals insist on adding a carte blanch on tax and spending for the nest 21 months to the bill, it is they that are holding it up, not the CPC.

This was NOT in the CBC radio report I heard today.

Well, I've been watching it most of the night.... https://twitter.com/PierrePoilievre/status/1242098813189455880?s=20

I still don’t think people quite grasp the severity of the situation, including many people on this forum....
https://nationalpost.com/news/may-soon-be-completely-out-of-control-covid-19s-dire-possibilities-could-dramatically-change-canada

11.3 MILLION @ 2% mortality = 226,000 Canadians dead.

Go ahead and scale it to what you think the actual mortality rate is and how many people you think will get the virus....   the number is still astronomical.   And the CPC wants to debate the finer points of democracy.  Stupid f’kn idiots.

Yeah - I'll point out that the mortality rate when you run out of ventilators is up to 10%.

LOL.  Would you give Harper a blank cheque and the power to bypass Parliament for the next 2 years?  That's what I thought.

Right now? Of course I would.  At least to September 30th.  That's what the Bloc has gotten the Liberals to agree to.  They can't increase taxes, but can borrow without consent until September 30th.

It's still no reason to declare a two year dictatorship. Everyone knows this has to be dealt with in a strong manner.
You know they can invoke he War Measures Act at any time given the circumstances and we could actually have our rights and freedoms suspended, right?

Imagine if the Trump administration could be taken down by a confidence motion before his term was up. Imagine if Canada had the same political system as the US. Imagine little pink unicorns dancing on the head of a pin.

It's now called the Emergency Measures Act and yes they could. Trudeau has already discussed it with the provinces.
