I'm making other plans. I'll never spend my money in Canada again

This ^^^ is what so many Canadians are missing. Our provincial and federal policies over the last 12-months have done so much damage, in so many ways that it will take decades for tourism to recover.

Here in eastern East Kootenay BC we crisscross the border regularily. We also have tons of tourists.
Our outbreak of covid was clearly linked to tourism.
Covid has not been all that bad experience overall.
Families are probably closer than ever . Nothing is all bad.
We won't be rodeoing, jackpotting etc but these same ponies will be on the trailhead more than ever.
I get my vaccine tomorrow, to( potentially) protect those around me. Life is pretty darn good, folks.God Bless

The first cases in Cranbrook were not the result of tourism but were from a man who returned from Ft McMurray and, knowing he was infected, attended a birthday party anyway. Cases in Fernie started at the ski hill, according to one Elk Valley doctor, though this was disputed by Bonnie Henry who seemed to lean toward the spontaneous appearance theory for the virus there. Ski hills were one of those places where the virus was not transmitted, apparently. Rifle ranges, on the other hand, are potential hotbeds of contagion so no matches can be held. GD

Yes good points. Covid is similar to diabetes in some respects. Interesting to note that science says 90% of covid deaths could be avoided if people had proper vitamin D levels. This is an obvious awareness problem, that family physicians could, and need to address. Studies prove it has the same positive effect on many other illnesses as well.

The vast majority of people with type 2 diabetes have it because of what they eat. Those people dont realize that they can cure it by changing their diet to extremely low, or zero carb. Another failure of our medical professionals. The data is irrefutable at this point, and many doctors are curing all sorts of metabolic disease with the low or zero carb diets. The problem is it hasnt gone mainstream because pharmaceutical companies make billions when people are unhealthy. Thats the similarity between covid and diabetes that I see.

Really

I disagree, the ski hills are the primary cause.
These young skiers stay in residences with many others. 10 or 12 to a house. I have witnessed this as I am called to do hvac work in Fernie, regularily.

My statement was a bit sarcastic in nature regarding the ski hills. For some reason, Dr. BS Bonnie did not want to identify ski hills as being a problem in any way. Of course, she also said that the existence of variants in BC did not necessarily mean that international air travel was contributory. Possibly, they swam in, I guess.
The real truth is that the virus is spread by stupidity more than any other cause. People who are exposed do not stay away from others and those who are not exposed don't stay away from those who are. GD
