globepolitics I guess Americans are immune, right?

globepolitics Remember all the finger pointing for the fake pandemic propaganda is all because a few idiots were bored and wanted to try eating bats. Coming recession and maybe depression of joblessness all because of idle and poor eating habits? Incredible. .................................

globepolitics

globepolitics Bet if you add it all up the % reduction it will be insignificant. More posturing. Lots of fluff, no substance. Stillnotready

globepolitics Ridiculous!! If Canada has a higher number of COVID19 u can bet Trump will close their border to Canada like yesterday. You can bet ur money on that. Close the borders to NON ESSENTIAL travel to ALL NON-Canadian citizens or residents...dang why make it complicated? No is or buts

globepolitics So Meghan can come in but not Harry! haha. COVID19 cotonavirus canadalockdown

globepolitics The only country with a growing number of cases is the USA. If we are to prevent a spread of the pandemic, it has to be ALL BORDERS closed. Coronavirus is not sparing anyone based on citizenship and/or nationality. We’ll need disaster management soon. Canada

nazneensheikh globepolitics Xenophobic?

globepolitics CanadianPM this does not go far enough. The only Americans and Canadians who should be permitted to cross to the other country is for legit commerce only. Keep trade going. That’s it. All else shut it down.

globepolitics

globepolitics Sure, the US are really safe and intelligently managed.

globepolitics Thinking... the exceptamericans element is temporary? we hope? Further announcement coming to add the US JustinTrudeau ?

globepolitics What? Because Americans have things under control they're fine to enter the country? Trudeau needs to remove his head from wherever he's stuck it ...

globepolitics What a joke

globepolitics Why the fuck not Americans?

globepolitics This makes no sense! US is north America epicenter all new Western cases came from US, including 3 New deaths in bc Act now this is not a drill. Or academic Canadians are now dying.

globepolitics So the epidemic that’s raging right now in Washington state will continue to spread into BC. Unbelievable

globepolitics You should shut down to America who has thousands of cases!

globepolitics The USA is infection central, but ok, keep giving them special treatment bc reasons.

globepolitics Look it’s a photo of an idiot walking through a door

globepolitics Except the illegal crossing at roxham road? Let’s import coronavirus at roxham road!!!! Why? Why is the government leaving this ignored? It’s a highway for the virus to enter Canada

globepolitics Given that Seattle hospitals are already allowing the elderly to die (triage), Americans should also have been barred from entering Canada.

globepolitics Americans are probably the biggest danger to Canadian health system at this time. I'd trust more a chinese citizen right now.

globepolitics Will that include the walk in borders too?

globepolitics Does that include the illegal border- crossers at Roxham Road?

globepolitics Yes, can you please ban me from coming to Alberta next week, if only because maybe then Air Canada will cancel my reservation automatically and I don't have to spent 17 bajillion hours on the phone with them. (Don't worry Canada, I was going to cancel anyway).

globepolitics Americans are the most problematic because of the lack of health insurance and infrastructure. Don't get why exempt.

globepolitics Canadians who think we can get through this without America are delusional. Now, more than ever, we need to work with our American partners. We need their expertise, we need their resources, we need their friendship. Ideologues need to grow up fast.

joannefrappier1 globepolitics Oh Jesus, I see a public inquiry coming and mega-millions paid to those upset by this in the not so distant future CanadaIsFilledWithEmotionalBasketcases

globepolitics Think about this: if these rules were in effect when they should have been, his partner would not have been able to come home. Truly bizarre times

Doodettedoodle globepolitics I live in the US and even I know that most of Canada’s cases come from our unhealthy, fat asses.

globepolitics US Citizens can still Come across our borders yet the Virus is spreading there quickly? WHY do we STILL have Passenger boats travelling from Seattle and Port Angeles to Vancouver Island. WE now Have The VIRUS on The ISLAND!!!!! The Government- Shut This Country DOWN!

globepolitics Sounds like our government is scrambling to implement BASIC emergency preparedness protocol to keep Canadians safe during the coronavirus. Apparently, science is to blame for the the lack of action taken..Trudeau said he does what science tells him to do. Go Canada!!!

globepolitics And irregulars.

globepolitics Closing our borders to all foreign nationals is what is needed to protect us. This is not the time to 'be nice'

globepolitics We should not exempt US citizens

globepolitics Should have done that 8 weeks ago. We knew exactly what was coming then. Better late than never but shocked by this government’s absolute incompetence.

globepolitics I'm not a permanent resident, but I have a work permit. I visited my family in Mexico, do you know if I can come back my work permit is valid, my kids also have a study-permit. Please help.

globepolitics I think the best part of this coronavirus crisis is seeing all the pro open borders globalist leaders closing their borders to foreigners BORDERS WORK!

globepolitics That picture doesn't do this man a favor lol. Seems he is hiding at the same time trying to look supportive HAHA

globepolitics It's about time but border with US should also be closed. The virus doesn't know the frontiers.

globepolitics COVID-19 virus does NOT recognize borders or countries!

globepolitics There should be no exceptions

globepolitics So useless

globepolitics We should be closing out border with thre US as well for now.

globepolitics Most of our cases now come from US, so this is just nationalistic posturing.

globepolitics a big chunk of recent cases in Canada came from US. lolz

globepolitics Stupid!

globepolitics Too Little Too Late! We should have closed our borders 3-4 weeks ago! Now we need to BAN ALL PUBLIC GATHERINGS. Over 172 Major cities, states or countries have banned large public gatherings! Canada is the only Country in the world that has not banned these large gatherings

globepolitics Riiiiight....

Canada To Close Borders To Most Non-Citizens, Trudeau SaysThe country is taking “increasingly aggressive steps” to keep everyone safe amid COVID-19 crisis. It makes no sense not to close the border to US citizens as most new cases come from the US. And the responses from the PM seem to lack any reasonable answer to this. Most of the reporters asking stupid ridiculous questions. As an on going crisis decisions are made as the situation changes too many reporters are fixed on the what was and not on what is now. ?
