    Has anything you want. Ask for a guy named qanon or Rudy. If rudy isn’t there he ll be next door lieing on a bed with his hands in his pants. They can cover anything real or make belief that you desire.

      The Sask Party has been in power since 2007. They are responsible for how the system is today and how they manage health care in the province during Covid. If the shite hits the fan then they will be wearing it.

      Moe is afraid to do the right thing and try to save as many lives as possible. He could spend some money to help small businesses with loans and protection from landlords. Why not? Because its politics! With 60% percent of the vote and a recent landslide he can afford to make the tough decisions required to save lives.

      And we still have people who are anti mask! What is wrong with these people? Self centered and stupid! That's what is wrong!

        Why don’t they put people into the UofS hockey rink Merlis Blecher?

        From what I understand it’s full of beds, cement cut out of the ice surface in many places to install septic tanks so patients don’t have to walk so far. Destroy a new building?

        You would think other older rinks would have been a better move? Or other warehouses?

        You would think Govt would support rural infrastructure and communities, taking people out of the high density - crowded, toxic urban areas. I see that saskatoon elected Charlie to intensify further saskatoon so every one will have equal rights and access.

                  Yes, makes Covid pale in comparison.

                  Anyone think about the math of this? For example cases with an outcome in the US are at about 4% death rate (long term average), 7 million cases, 250,000 dead at around 1500 per day lately. So yesterday an astounding 180,000 people got covid, does that mean by the time they have an outcome, is the US looking at 7200 deaths per day?

                  For comparison Canada is at 5%, but that has more to do with seniors homes getting covid and less general public infections. But we have far less ICU capacity then the US, this could get really bad.

                  Wear a mask, stay home, get the flu shot.

                    5%? You mean 1 in 20 people are dying? Rather doubt it.

                      What you choose to believe is completely irrelevant. The US cases have a 4% outcome, Cdn is 5%.
