- I hope the border stays closed as long as it takes to minimize spread. I dont know how long that should be, thats why i trust the professionals. Canada currently has good control of this virus.
Its important to remember that corona is the enemy. We are all in this together. JaxDad wrote:

Just open the **** border.
I don’t know where you’re getting your numbers from, but once again you’re wildly wrong there neighbour.
The US has had about 130k deaths from COVID-19 out of a population of 328.8 million people, so that’s 0.00039598 %
Canada has had 8,642 deaths from COVID-19 out of a population of 37.59 million people, so that’s 0.0002299 %.
That means the death rate, per capita, is 58 % higher in the US than it is in Canada, not 200 % higher in Canada as you stated.
That puts your numbers in error by about a factor of 400 %.
Read response to Orion.

I think you have that backwards, if you think that you are more likely to die from Covid in Canada than in the US! Their per capita deaths per 1m is 397 and Canada is 229! Lower is good!
I know. Just trying to keep the thread alive with more silliness. (is that a word?)- Im happy that the top scientists epidemiologists and doctors are advising gov rather then the average citizen based on the insane comments. All the governments of the world collectively invented or created a virus to control us? This makes my eyes hurt from rolling in my head.
- Ground hog day, all over again. It has been fun.

Announced today, the border will remain closed until at least Aug.30.
That would be excellent news Wilber. Couldn’t find it in an announcement. Is it just recent news???
Dr. Henry mentioned in today's briefing that she had just heard it and Dix said it was his understanding as well. Confirmation has to come from the feds though.
