    I wish they would do a general lockdown for January - like they did at the beginning of the pandemic.

    For now, I know a lot of parents want to keep schools open because it's impossible to work with kids at home. But if there were a full on lockdown with most jobs being postponed or shut down and focussing on the safety of the essential workers, people would be ok with it I think.

          i think local reddits attract the most reactionaries, but the /r/canada sub is run by literal white supremacists/white nationalists so who knows
