Well in per capita terms we still did way better so it's not the size of the population that can be blamed

 

I'm more annoyed with the lax attitudes of everyone than anything tbh. If everyone took it seriously this would be over by now

 

I was so tempted to go outside my quarantine zone in Brampton to Orangeville for a haircut where the lockdowns weren't in effect like some people I know did. But I decided to just do a covid cut at home because it would be irresponsible to live in a covid hot spot and break the rules and go get services in cities not in lockdown but many people have no issue doing that

 

The Government shares some blame in that respect. They should of known people would do stuff like that so you can't close some zones and not others. People just cross border and do shopping and dinning out and haircuts in another city. They put too much trust in people and rely too much on people to take personal responsibility seriously. They should know by now a big chunk of the population has proven they won't bother and so they need to crack down harder it's the only way

 

This entitled culture of "my rights" and "my freedoms" which take precedence over safety and concern for others health is why we can't get out of this mess tbh 

 very well put 

i think population density has an effect, while we have very compact areas in Canada our population is still more spread out than the US and I think that could have helped make the spread less severe. And of course the people are a bit more responsible, at least initially.

Just in time for Christmas  Let's hope this lockdown actually makes a difference, because the Toronto & Peel lockdown didn't affect case numbers at all...
