when Money overtakes the seriousness of this pandemic, there is something wrong with your moral compass

What good is quarantine, when you let people leave before it starts? I think they missed the point.

[badz]

People are dying due to corona virus, and we are worried of lost in tourism profit. You know the world is messed up when it is more important to lose people than money.

This will impact most people who live pay cheques to pay cheques, look at 18 months of financial disaster

I hate 2020. Hot Wars, trade wars, virus wars, political

[dkell]

Trudeau will handle this the stupidest way possible

ok, let's blame the virus instead of the criminal banksters stealing our money for ages.

We've been living high on the hog for over 7+ years, folks - why have we become so entitled that no losses can be experienced. Anyone everyone remembers the 1930's - Government didn't bail out small businesses. What a crock and all at taxpayers expense, yet we can demand $million for a house which sold for 264K just before 2008.

My cousin was really sick and he got into Canada over a week ago from Seattle. Seems like they didn't care at the border 🤦🏻‍♂️

What good is money or economy when people are dying from coronavirus.

The airline have been over charging for years. People have been getting sick on cruise for years the cruise industries to do a better job of cleaning and disinfecting.

I'm sure they will bail out their corporate friends but the poor will be left to suffer.

[Sang-Je]

Bye bye small businesses, hello monopoly.

I don't know why people are shocked that all these bad things are happening...the bible said that in the last days right before Jesus return there would be wars rumors of wars, earthquakes, pestilence, famine and other sings in the sky to warn people. Matthew 24 Get ready spiritually, get right with god, accept jesus as your lord and savior and repent of your sins before it's too late. Read your bibles! God bless

[TheNailLounge]

Governments have to help and supplement everyone that is affected what will happen when it comes to peoples rents and mortgages loans credit etc when this is for the greater good of public health and that we have no choice but to be quarantined
