Hey ford lets think about moving back to phase 2, duh!!!!

More non-action from fordnation. This is completely pointless.

Doing so while still allowing schools to remain open sends mixed messages. Pick a lane fordnation and stay in it There is far more than enough confusion already.

But schools are fine to be outside this ruling.

I wonder if fordnation will be changing his own Thanksgiving plans now? My guess is he, like Trudeau and all the rest, will carry on seeing his family and friends.

Ontario and Quebec schools shut down due to COVID-19 outbreaksPublic health officials in the two provinces were also taking different approaches to the timeline for reopening the schools Unreal. Time to scrap this public school BS. Give the taxpayers their money back. Fire the teachers, disband the unions, sell the buildings. You had your chance and you blew it. My God the government sucks. Not quite understanding all this because my kids have been back to school before Labour Day weekend...and nothing. Teachers aren't calling ' stress leave', get email updates, everyone being responsible and respectfully conscious of alternative measures.
