'All we're trying to do is stay in our bubble,' Oxford County, Ont. snowbirds left with no place to stay

The resort they call home, Spring Lake, in South-West Oxford, closes every year for the month of January, and many are afraid to go south.

About 30 residents find themselves in this predicament. With COVID-19 raging in some of the southern states, not to mention social and political turmoil, they don’t want to take any chances. “And we’re just waiting for them to respond. I understand that they are thinking about it and we’re very open to having a conversation with them. I think we can be very flexible on the rules.”After CTV News contacted Parkridge, Lachlan MacLean, the company's vice-president of Property Operations, issued the following statement.

So where's their immediate family to take them in? I'm sure they have room.... or rent like the rest of the Canucks.... or look for a trailer park that's not just seasonal.....

These are the same people that freeload our healthcare, is there any other reason why they came back? No.

Sounds like they got their wings clipped.

Get together with other snow birds and rent an Airbnb.
