Unhappy Re: Border closures

Its been extended again until Oct 21 which I'm sure will continue after that. That will kill us and a few others for Vegas. 4 races back to back would have been great.

Like Bob, I'd really like to head for Vegas, car hasn't turned a wheel this year but can almost guarantee the border won't open. Some interesting facts,

Washington state, 7.6 million population, 83,000 cases, 2070 deaths

BC, 5+ million population, 7,700 cases, 220 deaths

Just some simple numbers

# of cases 7,000,000 2.1%

# of dead 200,000 .06%

So lets punish everyone for the few

Good so far, but - not everyone has been tested -



79,000,000 people have been tested as of 26 August



7,000,000 tested positive


That's almost 9% of # tested



If we test EVERYONE, and the numbers hold, that's almost 30,000,000 positive cases.


That's over 800,000 dead, absent a vaccine or a miracle.



And everyone who dies had a Family and friends who loved them. You are very fortunate that you haven't suffered the loss of anyone you cared about. Here's hoping and praying you never do.

Really??? how would you know???? Some liberal a-hole tell you that too???If you want to be lead around by the nose, good for you. Think you know everything that goes into making decisions that affect millions of people?? Why don't you run for president and fix everything. You should walk a mile in someone else's shoes before opening up your mouth.

The number of people that die would not change just because you test more people. you will just have more people tested that didn't die.

No Official Decision. Recent polls have revealed that approximately 90% of the Canadian Population is in favour of the Border remaining closed until the Pandemic subsides. We have had spikes of positive cases in our Province of BC over the last month. A spike for us is like 40-100 people over a weekend, 2-5 deaths in a month is serious up here in BC. The U.S is accelerating at approximately 1 Million cases per month (7 Million now) and has exceeded 200000 deaths. Personally I find it upsetting that no real responsible action has been implemented by your current Federal Director. The World is watching the U.S. daily in hope that a serious outlook can be established to help end this Life Altering Event. When someone raises a serious question related to this Pandemic, the reply has been about employment, stock market, riots, China or Hillary. At some point somebody has to put on "The Big Boy Shoes" and take the correct action for all of you because it ain't happening now. MB
