We all need to band together and work the problem. I’m stuck with the spineless Mr Trudeau. At least the orange clown is making hard decisions while my leader can’t decide when to take a dump. I’d be happy with a cocky clown vs a spineless wimp right now.
As for Boeing, of course there will be government bailouts. It won’t be unique to them or the industry either. Many other industries will need the same to survive. Many big companies and banks will lose value as well. Companies like Apple will lose billions of stock value but they won’t become insolvent. Many big businesses will shed paper value and there will be a new norm. This is a huge game changer.
The man you say surrounded himself with scientists called the virus a hoax and said it was contained to 15 cases 2 weeks ago. You say not to get lost in political posturing and go on a generic anti-Trudeau rant in the same breath, does it only work one way? The VP and current surgeon general heading your crack team mismamaged an HIV epidemic in Kansas (2011) because they don't believe in science and also think South Korea is a dictatorship (to explain why they could not react like them).
Not saying the federal government is doing a great job (our Premier in Quebec is making Trudeau look awful) but the provincial governments in general (except Alberta and Ontario, Doug Ford telling people to go on spring break last Friday was almost criminal) are doing a good job so far, at least where I live. Your confidence in our friends to the south federal leadership is misguided. I would have shut the border to Americans (people not goods) yesterday as well.
