Is your frustration with the government’s restrictions, because your wife could have had her business open safely during the time it was forced to stay closed? That’s a reason I can accept.
But why the frustration with the NHL, who (just like your wife) were forced to close up shop?
not frustrated with the NHL. I just think there are many business that we’re not allowed to open, many regionally because of COVID19 and Some for good reason. But there were many people in many different business categories that felt they should’ve been opened as they were essential.
Covid isn’t as bad as it was two months ago. But we’re are not in the clear and I think that playing hockey is not something that is essential.
I get they’ll live in a bubble. But what happens when there is an outbreak there? Does it become Toronto or Ontario’s problem? How many people are going to follow the rules? Everywhere I go be it work, stores, wherever, not everyone is following the rules.
We are not out of the water right now and I know most people commenting have been disagreeing with me, but many people including NHL players still feel as though it shouldn’t be started up. Much of that is the accuracy of the testing as well.
As for my wife’s business. I get everyone lost business. I’ve supported a lot of what the government has done. I’ve accepted the terms we lost money and I know many people are in the same situation.
But you can’t have a double standard. I think many of these players flying in from regions in the United States and then coming to Canada into the bubble isn’t safe enough. I’m not worried much about outside the bubble. I’m worried about an outbreak inside the bubble and what happens then. Does the NHL have their own hospital inside or are they going to use ours? Are those workers going to leave in fear when there is an outbreak. The tests are not accurate especially when you dont have any symptoms. my boss had symptoms and was in the hospital on oxygen and the first two tests were negative.
As for the border. I still stand by that. I don’t think you should allow people to come into this country to play a hockey game and not allow other people to see families. Either nobody or everybody. I think right now it should be nobody. I wanna see family and understand why I can’t see my family. I’m canadian but virtually all my family is across the border.
im not trying to be a baby. I wasn’t dishonest like someone said. I just think that we are still in a pandemic and some regions worse than others. That’s where people disagree. I’m just getting attacked and when I have a valid reason to be upset when ours and many others business was forced to close when it could’ve been controlled yet the government is allowing this to open up. I get it helps the economy. But so did all the small business that were shit down. We were shutdown for valid reasons. The same reason the NHL should remain shutdown. We don’t need the NHL.
