    Remember that piece of paper POOTWH whipped out of his way too broad and padded shouldered suit jacket, a la David Byrne, and waved around claiming it was evidence of Obama spying on him and he was going to jail? Remember that? MAGA.

    curious, have each province lifted most or all capacity limits?

    Hmmm, I think so? BC is still dragging our butt on the vaccine pass and masking, so I imagine when capacity was lifted a couple weeks back, we would have been behind alot of the pack?

    Ron Desantis chides students for wearing masks, asking them to take them off.  They don't.  That's hilarious considering he said he was about freedom and choice. 

    https://www.tampabay.com/news/education/2022/03/02/desantis-chides-students-for-wearing-masks-at-his-tampa-news-conference/

    TAMPA — At a news conference Wednesday, Gov. Ron DeSantis expressed irritation that a group of high school students standing behind him were wearing masks and urged them to remove the face coverings.

    Before taking the lectern at the University of South Florida, where he announced a $20 million state investment in cybersecurity workforce education, DeSantis asked why people wearing masks were standing behind him.

    Then he approached the students, who are studying cybersecurity in high school.

    “You don’t have to wear those masks,” DeSantis said. “Please take them off.”

    Some of the students laughed. DeSantis appeared to remain annoyed. “Honestly, this is not doing anything,” he said. “We got to stop with this COVID theater.” The students didn’t respond.

    How is Desantis not for freedom and choice? That's hilarious you left out the rest of the article which says:

    “So if you want to wear it, fine, but this is ridiculous,” the governor said before turning around and sighing.

    Four students took their masks off, but three left them on.

    DeSantis has previously said Florida is “the freest state in these United States” and individuals should be left to decide for themselves how to respond to COVID-19.

    DeSantis spokesperson Christina Pushaw said the governor wanted “to make sure everyone is aware of the facts and data now, so they can feel free and comfortable without a mask.”

    “As the governor said, “You can wear them if you want” but there’s “no evidence” they make any difference,” she said in an email. “That has been clear for a long time, and the data informed our state’s official guidance. Following Florida, the CDC has even stopped recommending mask wearing for most Americans.”

    Did you read what he said? "if you want to wear it, fine, but this is ridiculous", which is absolutely true. He gave them a choice to wear the mask or not. 4 of the 7 kids (a majority) removed their masks. He could've said what he said in a kinder way but he is as fed up with COVID bullshit and lies as the rest of America. Many Democratic leaders have proven they feel the same way when they told their communities to mask up and then they went out without masks and got caught. It was theater.

    I have no problem if someone still wants to wear a mask. I personally won't make fun of them and I think it's pathetic for those who will make fun of them. If wearing a mask makes you feel safer, that is a personal choice that I respect even though most masks are not sufficient.
    It still doesn’t negate the fact that he’s a giant asshole, I’d write him a letter if I’m one of those parents cause you know he wouldn’t meet with parents he doesn’t have the guts too!

    I’m more center than most here. But there’s about 1000 better ways he could have said that they didn’t need masks, or just let them do whatever they felt comfortable doing. I don’t think anyone should be shamed into wearing or not wearing a mask at this point. It was political theater and he most certainly sounded like a gigantic asshole the way he spoke to those kids. I’m not sure how anyone could defend that behavior.

    The only mandate left in  Ontario is face mask…expected to be dropped by months end.  Asking for proof of vaxx is up to the individual business.  Hope this helps.

    Agreed he goes out of his way just like Trump did to make himself come off as an asshole!

    That’s why it came off as theater to me. We all know how he feels about masks but there’s absolutely no reason to shame someone, especially kids, about wearing or not wearing one.

    Awesome man. Our kids are the week after. They have March break this week so hopefully they have worn masks for the last time there.

    Good to hear.  Our kids were able to drop them a couple of weeks ago in IL.  It was very much welcomed and they're still optional of course, so those that wish to wear them can.  Win-win.

    It is so strange that the mask mandates aren't lifted today.  It is either safe or not safe to wear masks and highly unlikely that one week matters.  Weird days we live in.  Excited for everyone.

    I agree. Our province did roll out a timeline for reopening to 100% no restrictions with dates. May 14 is our date that all restrictions are lifted and masks are one of the last to go.

    march 15 in manitoba the vaccine passport and masking, and even isolating when covid positive are done. our medical experts are especially not happy about the last two.

    Not isolating when you have a contagious disease that can be deadly to some is ridiculous, and also just plain rude. I hope people continue to do the right thing and stay home when they’re sick.

    What about the families that are barely making ends meet and can't stay at home for a week without pay?
