Yes, page 20 under "Domestic Services [...] to support children": https://files.ontario.ca/moh-enhanced-provincewide-shutdown-en-2021-01-12-v3.pdf

Don't hold your breath. The media (both traditional and social) is currently in the process of painting all Republicans/conservatives as traitors who need be "dealt with". History tells us that this strategy rarely ends in anything close to unity. The democrats are still in denial about the...

I doubt they have the personnel to do it anyways. It took a pandemic (revenue hit) for TPS to start enforcing basic traffic laws. I don't think they have the manpower to do anything close to what you've described.

It is tough. But they could do something to at least try. Or at least force people to quarantine upon return (put them up in a hotel for 2 weeks) as part of the condition of traveling. In other news, looks like a curfew is off the table (or at least that's what they are leaking): Ford cabinet...

Apart from the rights infringement point (which I've argued here already) there are other problems with a curfew: People now have reduced hours to shop, leading to line ups and more people in stores in a shorter period of time. More people in stores during a given time = higher chance of COVID...

1. Not necessarily the measures themselves, but the train of thought behind it. We have people on here begging the government to institute curfews, and it just seems disproportional to me. Also yes I understand Poland had no choice, I was speaking more about the dawn of Soviet communism than...

Wow. Enough said, no point in carrying this debate on any further. Did you ever consider that places like communist Poland became they way they are, because at the outset people were eager to throw their rights away for some sort of security (physical, financial, etc.)? This is how every...

Of course, no where did I say we have the absolute right to do what we want. I am saying it's completely outside of "reasonable" to order all ~14 million people in Ontario to be under house arrest from 8PM - 5AM. There is a big difference between "I should have the right to go drink in a bar...

The argument will be that it creates a hostile work environment for female employees. I don't necessarily agree, but don't give some HR person a reason to squeeze you out. Now of course, would a female employee get fired for having a picture of a shirtless hot dude in their background...

This, especially if you work in tech or something where diversity is a big topic of discussion these days.

Burden of proof rests on those making the claim. Can you prove that I do have it? Aren't you the guy who's all about stay at home, but was then revealed to have bought a brand new motorcycle during the spring lockdown?

The premise is exactly the same -- removing of fundamental rights based on something that someone may/may not have done. I don't have COVID, why is me going for an evening walk at 10PM suddenly illegal?

I haven't broken any laws. I certainly draw the ire of some people on here for going outside with friends, but that isn't illegal yet thank god. I mean, why bother having any rights at all? There are crimes far worse than having an illegal gathering yet I don't hear anyone on here suggesting we...

https://www.cp24.com/news/ontario-s-top-doctor-eyes-curfew-to-curb-the-spread-of-covid-19-as-cases-surge-1.5258230 Seriously, this is ridiculous. Politicians going on vacation left and right, but we need a curfew now? Thanks Quebec for opening the door to this garbage.

Yes the famed "mostly peaceful" BLM protests that involve: burning and looting private businesses mobbing, and in some cases, beating/killing ordinary citizens trying to go about their day harassing ordinary citizens (mostly white) sitting down eating dinner at restaurants all of which were...

Idiotic, this will only serve to ruin their movement's image even further. Apart from it being the nation's capitol, this is a drop in the bucket compared to what was going on in May/June/July across the country, but that doesn't make it right. It is amusing to see the "mostly peaceful...

https://www.cp24.com/news/quebec-to-impose-8-p-m-provincewide-curfew-until-feb-8-1.5256297 Quebec going into curfew territory, I wonder how long until it's challenged in court?

? for an early spring.

Nothing different for me since the restrictions are more/less what we've had in Toronto since early November. Fingers crossed for an early spring.

The playgrounds/outdoor exercise equipment thing from spring was so dumb. God forbid we let people do some chinups in a park, the bars are usually 6 feet apart already anyway.
