Trudeau said Canada’s supply chain has not been disrupted, and groceries and other goods continue to enter the country

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says Canadians shouldn’t resort to panic buying despite the growing number of COVID-19 cases across the country.He says it makes sense to stock up on key supplies for a few days in order to limit frequent trips to grocery stores, but he cautioned against buying too much at once.

Trudeau says Canadians should think of others and do their part to ensure there are enough supplies to go around. His comments come as the number of COVID-19 cases continues to climb, with Ontario reporting 39 new cases and Nova Scotia reporting its first three positive tests. Long store lineups and empty shelves have been an increasingly common sight across the country as the number of cases nationwide approaches the 300 mark.

Weird Prime Minister if do say so myself!

Buy what you would regularly buy!

Our governments have several smart people WHO have access to several smart people. Have some faith. Logic not emotion. The right thing at the right time for the right reason. We have a big country. Take it easy.

This is what happens when a dope smoking hippie is in charge....

Dude out spreading the virus! Should be locked up.

He ain’t panicking because he is selfie isolating! And his housemaids do the shopping! Pretty sure they have a house full of toilet paper!

Trudeau as usual is late to the party. It really makes the term Prime Minister look really really irrelevant

There is a difference between stocking up for a month and panic buying 32 pkgs of toilet paper. Common sense is needed. Come on people.

Too little too late.

If you resist the urge to grow a beard

The only way to stop the spread of COVID-19 is social distancing! Stay home.

Why doesn’t the government put out an order to stop grocery stores from selling 300 rolls of toilet paper 20 cases of disinfectant wipes in one purchase. People are nuts!

Just-a-turdeau

I've been watching this virus since the early days in Wuhan. The governments new it was coming and did not prepare anything, now everyone is panicking. We prepared a month ago. They should have too!

Panic caused by Government recommendation to “stock up”. Toilet paper and sanitizer was on the list.

Didn't his Health Minister tell us to prepare ourselves?

The real panic is him being our PM

we panic because our government is not doing it’s job to protect its citizens, we panic because our government exposes its citizens to danger... that’s why we panic.

Says the sunny ways PM who has public servants to shop for him and a months long storehouse of supplies for his government residence. Guess he experiences things differently than everyday Canadians. cdnpoli

Coming from a guy that never has to do the shopping!

Over the weekend, we just shopped for some regular groceries. We asked people who seemed to be PanicBuying...WHY the ToiletPaper. They couldn't explain it either. 'Because everyone else is' Must be some kinda ArseVirus going the rounds.

... he's doing a good job resisting the urge to do anything

Says the guy who doesn't have to do his own shopping while having a fully stocked liquor cabinet.

Send the help to do it for you.

If that isn't enough, maybe this will add credence to the argument. Just sayin. Loblaws, Woodroffe and Baseline, this morning.

There may be a bit less panic if his government stopped lying to Canadians Lying about one thing simply makes people concerned about what else they are lying about in regards to this virus

After reading this my urge to splurge just increased tenfold. See you guys when I get back from Costco

Say that shit, and it makes a rational person to WANT to panic buy.

Premiers To Trudeau: Thanks For COVID-19 Funding, But Billions More NeededAlberta's Jason Kenney is pressing for 'vigorous federal economic stimulus measures.' This is where we need to see Ottawa leadership.The premiers doing excellent job in their role, but it will be on the financial help where federal gov must step up. Unfortunately jkenney keeps trying to lump Alberta's failing economy in with things impacted by covid-19. The oilsands are not viable because the Saudis & Russians are having a price war. $75/barrel might not come back for 100 years. Are we supposed to bailout Big Oil until then rexglacer Unfortunately Trudeau gave away all of our money, then borrowed more and gave that away as well so Canadians are out of luck.
