Even reading posts in this forum, I'd bet that people are still going out for non-essential travel and risk contracting and spreading covid. Don't even get me started with the big box stores and their black friday sales. Its all or nothing in my opinion. Either go hard with enforcement or let the businesses operate with covid protocols.

You know I find it disturbing how many people are not only willing, but clamouring to have our government assume such control over our freedom. Taking australia as some exemplary model.
It's not the return to "normal" that people are longing for. They are living in a literal prison state. And it's not even based in rationality. You can hold a beach ball under water but it will come up as soon as you let go.
I actually have a level of admiration for this Adamson guy.
My brother developed one of the most prominent diesel repair shops in the lower mainland. We had nothing growing up. He created that business with his intelligence, timing, location, and the drive and dedication it takes to create a successful business from nothing. His story isn't unique. It's the story of every entrepreneur who's successfully grown a business.
And they are the lifeblood of our economy. To see people begging to have their life's work destroyed without regard is disheartening.
I'm not saying that's you. But it seems to be the sentiment of many.
