They Went From “Flatten The Curve” To “Solitary Confinement” So Fast We Didn’t Even Notice

I’m old enough to remember when this made you a xenophobe: PM Trudeau announces new travel restrictions

If Trudeau wanted to curb the spread of Covid, we’d be manufacturing saliva based rapid tests by the millions; they’d be available by mail order, in every pharmacy, in vending machines, at restaurants, at hospitals and LTC where every employee and visitor would be tested before entry.

They can be manufactured for a few dollars, they take 15 minutes for results. But no, we must submit to the same unimpeachable government doctors who have been utterly, confidently and authoritatively wrong on nearly every emerging question since this pandemic began.

  1. My son spent 4 years and over $100k to become an Airline Pilot. He had nearly 18 months in his dream career and was loving every minute of it.

    Now he is driving a school bus – his career is likely toast.

    Bastards!

    1. Your son should have taken a career as a maniacal bastard, then he’d be at Davos and be the one coordinating all these policies that just happen to be so similar across the west.

  2. Sophie was positive. Not Justin?
    Have they travelled outside the country since March 2020?
    Hippocrites, the lot.
    A pox on their…oh wait.

  3. One would think that the idiot just stays in his cuckoo’s or if you prefer kook’s nest and stop announcing what he is told to say.
    The world just may be a better place.

    1. “stays in his cuckoo’s or if you prefer kook’s nest”……….I believe the word you were looking for is CUCKOLD

  4. Funny, can’t go to the Caribbean but they can come to us. Witness the regular Covid infected flights from Haiti to Canada and the international flights from China and Europe…to Canada???

    Sucks having a government such as this. An election cannot come soon enough but then again Ontario and the Maritimes love this guy so he will be re-elected again, and again, and again.

    1. No the eastern asswipes love the money and benefits he doles out stolen from western Canada.

  5. Sic ‘im, Pinky!

    Get ‘im, Boy!

    Show ‘im that Pinky O’Toole has balls and stands up for the little folk!

    Pinky! Stop that pissing and whimpering and get out from under that bed! Right Now!

  6. At the end of August 2021 I have a cruise to Japan booked through Viking Ocean Cruises – they have installed labs on all their ships and will be requiring all passengers to submit a salvia spit every morning for analysis. If positive they will ask you to isolate.

    Why can private sector do it, but government can’t? I know the answer, but it is a good question

    1. By August we won’t be allowed to travel more than 5 km from home (if that!), let alone go to Japan. I hope I’m wrong though.

  7. The only sane response to these authoritarian incompetents,”Your two weeks are up”.
    Then ignore them.
    Should they persist..
    Crush them,for they are your enemies.
    Two weeks to “Save the healthcare system”..11 months ago.
    The definition of insanity is doing the same thing repetitively,insisting different results will result.
    Our Lock Down Dominatrixes are insane.
    Delusions of adequacy as they destroy whatever was decent about our failing society.
    At zero cost to them or theirs..

  8. Who are they going to blame once cases continue to increase once all travel is effectively banned? It is unfathomably criminal that they don’t have rapid tests after nearly a year of declaring a crisis. I guess that is what happens when the CCP runs off with the intellectual property you stupidly gave them and then lock you out.
    Our country is being run by people who are insane.

    1. Why would I need a test for something that has a greater than 99% survival rate?

      In case you haven’t realized it, they are coming for your car.
      >>>”Who are they going to blame once cases continue to increase once all travel is effectively banned?”

      The virus is irrelevant. Number of infected, is irrelevant. Infection survival rate, is irrelevant. Infection mortality rate, is irrelevant. I know that humans were immortal before 2020, and there had never before been a death in recorded history, … . But, c’mon, man!

      They have never liked, that we could go where and when we want, stop where and when we want, eat what and when we want, …

      1. At the outset of this I didn’t believe that they would do a whole bunch of things they have done so…absolutely willing to believe you.

        I guess I find it hard to think as irrationally as our governing betters appear to. If their goal was to bring down cases, then they would actually test. It is really easy to do – even PCR testing is easy to do. But since they aren’t testing I guess their goal must be other.
        The other option is that we are dealing with really, really stupid people running the executive branches of federal and provincial governments, which could lead to the same results (autocracy).

        Where is Waldo….er the Opposition?

  9. Two grand for three nights at the airport hotels? Right now in Calgary they’re advertised for $220 – $250 per night. Must be some kinda fancy meals I guess.

    1. Hotels are $200. Having a government bureaucrat give it a thumbs up costs $500/night/person. Tyranny isn’t free.

      1. Well, since I left the country, I found a new place to dwell.
        It’s down at the end of lonely street called Covid Hotel.
        I’ll be so lonely, baby, I get so lonely.
        I get so lonely I could die.

        With apologies to Elvis

  10. “But no, we must submit to the same unimpeachable government doctors who have been utterly, confidently and authoritatively wrong on nearly every emerging question since this pandemic began.”

    You know, you’re right. They really have been 100% @$$-backward on every single thing since the start of this.

    What are the chances they could be wrong every time? Even a stopped clock is right twice a day. I offer the hypothesis that they’re stealing the money. We’re all being fleeced and set up for a totalitarian regime “for our own good.” I wonder how far they’ll go?

    1. Climate ‘crisis’ is the next reason given for the continuation of this smiley-faced totalitarian takeover. Maybe the ‘mutant strains’ of CoVid first?

  11. Well you still can fly out tomorrow. I think the strategy might be to fly out tomorrow, and don’t come back. Canada is now a prison. We are East Germany before the wall came down.

  12. Communism is the goal.
    Covid is the tool.

    You know this is true as it is the death cult over lords who now pretend to be so concerned about life.

  13. My wife and I fly for a living and were getting set to retire after over 30 years but now we’re crossing our fingers in hopes that we’ll even get to see our pensions, and yet we still have colleagues who say they will wait for the bigger picture as our industry is being destroyed before their very own eyes. I’m so grateful that after a few flying lessons our son decided that it wasn’t for him. He’s now on the verge of getting his plumbing ticket and has trouble keeping up with the demand for his services.

    1. You are getting out at the right time, but I understand your pension concern.

      As noted above, my son is a junior FO on the Q400 with Jazz. Last flew in April. My daughter got her CPL/Multi/IFR just after 9/11 and changed career to be an electrician, she’s working full time and making good money. My son’s prospects were excellent a year ago, no prospects at all now.

      I’ve trained many a youngster ab initio and they graduated to heavy metal. They are also out of work.

      Really depressing.

      I am now fearful they will try and take away my airplane, or at least make it utterly unaffordable.

      1. Yes. I think private planes are on the chopping block. They will do something to prevent your using it.

  14. My intention has been not to vote in the next Federal election — whenever that happens. I have not been imporessed with what O’Toole and Conservatives have to offer that is different from the status quo. I would reconsider if the Conservatives started going after the government for their pathetic handling of Covid. The excessive lockdowns and travel bans are not really preventing transmission of the virus which is not that deadly for most people anyway. But Conservatives are like a bunch of ineffectual dupes. No one is challenging the government, and the Liberal government is destroying the country. Can we have some push back, please? Even some effort to put the virus in perspective would help. There is lots of factual evidence that the response to the virus has been way overblown. The MPP Roman (???) had it right. Conservatives dumped on him. Why?? But the Conservatives act like a bunch of bewildered dupes.

  15. Come on, man!
    If you could take a simple inexpensive test then how could they justify controlling you?

    We’re the doggie with the kibble balanced on it’s nose; if we sit real still they will say the magic word and we can have the treat.
    Until next time.

    These restrictions are so useful to the government that they will never be fully removed now.

  16. Why bother?

    Canadian government employees have spent the last ten months working hard—on drinking themselves into an early grave, being relieved of the responsibility of showing up for work on time and sober and pretending to do anything constructive.

    It’s much easier to start drinking at breakfast if you only have a couple of hours of work to do on a given day, if that, and you only need leave the house to join a leftist riot on government time.

    They quite like their new lifestyle, and won’t go back to the old one given any choice.

    If the tax-slaves don’t like it they can lump it.

  17. I think it is time consider industrial hemp production before the next election. This will not be for cannabis rather rope. The crop should be distributed to the audience before the all candidates meetings.

  18. The Caribbean’s entire economy is dependant on tourism. They’ll all be coming here as refugees once they’ve collapsed.

    1. Remember 8tea? They have carte blanche…frog speak: https://www.mtlblog.com/en-ca/news/montreal/33-international-flights-to-montreal-carried-passengers-with-covid19-in-the-last-2-weeks

      33 International Flights With Infected Passengers Landed In Montreal In The Last 2 Weeks. January 27 2021
      The two Air Transat flights from Port-au-Prince touched down in Montreal on January 13 and 17. Among others from: U.S., Morocco, Mexico, and France.
      But don’t you dare plan to travel outside the country. Next WILL be blocked inter-provincial travel. Politicians exempt

  19. I wonder, what is the plan for a Trudeau hotel guest that tests positive for the CCP virus during the 3 day stay? An extended 14 day no-expense paid quarantine, then another test, with the results based upon whether or not you are a Trudeau supporter? After all, it is well know the PCR tests are upwards of 90% false-positive depending on the cycling threshold used. Once inside you could be labeled a serious public health risk and be eligible for an indefinite stay at the interment camp. You know, the internment camps that Trudeau recently wrote off as “misinformation”. Perhaps Trudeau’s crazy covid plan leaked in October 2020 is not all that crazy?

  20. I wish someone could interview the talking heads who told us that travel restrictions don’t work and they’re racist and ask them if and/or why they’ve changed their minds. Or did they even know what the h@!! they were talking about in the first place?

    1. It always was about conquest, subjugation, and control. The virus, such as it was, was only a convenient (on purpose) excuse.

      The only two immediate relatives I have left in the country blather on about it being a plague. It didn’t help that my cousin actually caught, so my elderly aunt now believes that there are dead bodies in the streets everywhere. Neither of them want to see the overall picture and none of them believed me when I told them what this was all about.

      I haven’t been in contact with them in over a month. Why should I waste my time and effort trying to convince those who know it all better anyway?
