  Can't wait til our mandates come back two months late and last five months longer than they should, and not combat the actual problem in any way! Of course that second problem is the usual mode of the Canadian government.
context: Well now we'll have to test travelers from China and Canada! >
  
  Omg I love your username >
  
  🕵🏻 New Hampshire?! 🤦🏻‍♂️ 😅 >
  
  I had a layover in Canada in April and they were the last bastion of mask mandates.  Now they aren't going to test people from China when there is a clear amount of data showing they really should? >
  
  Countries are weird like that. I had a friend who was scheduled to go get a job in Sweeden right before covid, they wouldn't let him due to covid. Now remember this was the place that just did business as usual and didn't care about social distancing or anything. Yet somehow they had a problem with letting this guy come in, it changed his entire life course because it was an important job. >
  
  It wasn't business as usual here. >
  
  Everyone but people living there seems to think so >
  
  They probably shouldn't listen to Fox News. >
  
  This is a disaster. All those university students returning after Christmas break, not screened. Welcome to the new outbreak. >
  
  I dont think there are many international students returning from china, the border barely opened up and nobody is going INTO china while they have a explosion of covid cases >
  
  Plenty did. My best friend at my university is an intl student from China and he went (and promptly caught covid) and we have a huge amount of Chinese students in my program, and 75% of them went home for the break and all plan to return. >
  
  definitely they want to go back home after years not being able to.. on the other hand, at least ART should be enforced before flight >
  
  As long as they don't buy houses, its all good. >
  
  You’d think with our virtually collapsed healthcare system we’d be more preventative this time around >
  
  We are ready to kill our own to please our real estate overlords >
  
  Probably the most underrated comment.  Canada has a large Chinese population who invest, and the government likely doesn’t want to stop the flow of foreign money, especially now that interest rates of gone up and the real estate market is weakening >
  
  Are countries so afraid to offend China or something? The f is going on here?
  even their own citizens were treated worse then this. >
  
  Lol as if testing will even stop it. Look what happened the first time. A few people get through, show no symptoms or are negative and it spreads.
  Most Canadians already know the Healthcare system is cracking under the pressure, with no help from the Premiers withholding money and deliberately sabotaging it. Saving the money and saying it's a surplus while asking for more blank checks from the federal government saying "its totally going to Healthcare, promise!"
  Then you got the anti-mandate, freedumb convoyers, and anti-mask/anti science gangs. They are either nonchalant because it's still a "fake virus" and dont want any safety precautions or doing a complete 180 so they can use the opportunity to once again blame Trudeau for "bowing" to China for not implementing safety precautions. THE VERY THING THEY PROTEST AND BITCH AGAINST HAVING.
  So yeah, not great for sane, rational citizens of Canada. Absolutely great opportunity for whiny, hypocritical, anti-science nuts to have something new to cry foul about. >
  
  Hear hear! >
  
  Please no >
  
  Justin Trudeau would never want to make his masters angry with him. >
  
  Then why did he not follow their lead? >
  
  China cares a lot more about how they are perceived than how Canada treats their citizens. >
  
  Justin also likes being featured in news articles where he appears more progressive than the Americans >
  
  If infected they most likely have Omicron 5 which by now the population has a pretty good herd immunity. >
  
  Stop saying herd immunity, that doesn't apply to upper respiratory viruses. You still get them and spread them, only the severity of illness changes due to vaccines or previous infection. >
  
  Trudeau checked with Chinese bosses and they said Nah. >
  
  Lot of astroturfing going on in the comments today. >
  
  Looks like we're going to have to start testing the Canooks. >
  
  Guess it’s true, Trudeau can be bought off by the Chinese. Congratulations Canada, >
  
  Look up FIPA and see who sold Canada out to China that would be Stephan harper >
  
  And who signed the CPTPP to counter China when Trump pulled American support for the TPP? Oh that's weird it was Trudeau. >
  
  More convenient than asking your citizens to suicide themselves as medical treatment. >
  
  Close the border then, ffs, the hospitals are already understaffed. Doubtful this common sense response will be done so we're destined for a repeat of the last go round only worse because people are desensitized. >
  
  Australia is doing the same thing in not requiring Chinese travellers to provide negative covid tests.. it’s just going to be another cluster fuck here.. our hospitals are not able to keep with demand as it is.. >
  
  Of course not, they would say sorry for asking the Chinese visitors if they have covid. >
  
  I got no words for Canada, I hope nobody will get to say that we told you so , just do the damn test >
  
  This is a disaster. Canada need tution fee even all university students returning after Christmas break, brings covid. >
  
  I mean Canada is completely owned by China at this point so not exactly a shock. >
  
  Yes, Canada will take it up the ass for China.  We already know this. >
  
  Because Canada’s money is valued the same as china’s money compare US dollar. Plus they have 9 billion acres of open land. >
  
  lol keep your covid to yourself. >
  
  We follow UK and some US. >
  
  And there is the loop hole >
  
  BINGCHILING 🍦 >
  
  Thats weird bc yesterday on local AM and cbc radio they were reporting that travellers from China would need a negative test result from the previous 48 hrs.
  My thought was that it could be falsified from another country and I’d rather they test on arrival and quarantine until results are attained. >
  
  Canada: HELL YEAH BOYS LET'S DO COVID AGAIN! >
  
  So, we're gonna start this whole thing all over again, huh? 🙄 cool! 😒😑
