I wondered if that would show up around here... the rail doesn't disappoint, I guess.
I used to hang out there as a kid before it became a strip joint.
 
I remember going by the Victory at Dundas / Spadina. My mother would make us sit on the other side of the streetcar so we couldn't see the billboard pictures of Cupcakes Cassidy. lol
Cupcakes Cassidy!!! Yes! Thanks for a blast from the past.
 
She started my love for big breasasses.
I'll be forever damaged.

Blue veins. Lots of blue veins. The Naked Eye.

Anyways, much stuff seems to be moving towards pre-covid levels, for those gainfully employed anyways.

Was talking about this at work the other day.
I have worked through the whole epidemic, my lifestyle hasn't really changed much. I didn't go out much before.
But my wife and kids have only been out a handful of times, they are happy to get some sort of normalcy back.

I'm sure they will find all the people that went there . They all left real names and phone numbers . I'm also sure they all used a credit card so they can be traced .

Some places still discount for cash.
 
Deaths per 1M population is more significant than deaths divided by confirmed cases.

The US has been testing nearly twice as much as Canada so they've detected a lot more mild & asymptomatic cases.

Canada is 25th in deaths/1M pop while the US is 10th.

I don't get your reasoning.
 
Deaths per million population is indicative of the effectiveness of the entire country's response to the pandemic (and on how early or late they were affected - the USA may be 10th by this measure but they're catching up fast to other countries that were affected sooner).

Deaths divided by confirmed cases is subject to the vagaries of how effectively the country is testing and inconsistencies in testing protocols. For example, how can Qatar have 115,368 confirmed cases out of a population of 2.8 million and only 193 deaths? It's great that they've had "only" 193 deaths (69 deaths per million population, 0.16% of confirmed cases) but how can there be so many confirmed cases? They've tested about 20% of their population, which is good, but their numbers aren't consistent with the rest of the world. Either Qatar has been extremely good at finding every infection (but then, why do they have so many if they could contact-trace and isolate every infection?), or they're getting a lot of false positives and not filtering them out ... which is my guess.

India has 2.6 million confirmed cases and 51,000 deaths. Do you believe either of those numbers?

Yemen has 1869 confirmed cases and 530 deaths (population 30 million). They're not testing. (Total tests 120)
 
How about; the pile of dead bodies is more significant then any attempt at test results.
 
Yup, you can stop testing in order to get fewer cases like Trump suggested a while back, but it won't make the pile of dead bodies go away.
 
I don't get your reasoning.
Deaths per million should be reasonably constant across countries (assuming similar demographics are infected). Substantial differences in deaths per million is likely due to people gaming the stats (over-reporting to justify spending, under-reporting to justify spending, etc). Confirmed infections is closely correlated to tests per million but can also be gamed by choosing who to test.
