HEALTH: So long as Trudeau doesn't get ousted...

...by the New Conservatives in the next year or so and if DT-45 doesn't get away with going Full Reich Mk. IV on the USA's population and Constitution, I suspect we'll be able to handle a lot of what COVID-19 (AKA SARS 2.0?) throws at Canada.

I'd really like to see Canada take on full EU membership, sign onto the Schengen Agreement and so on, though. I think that might make us a bit safer geo-politically, even in a pandemic scenario.

Yes, the "pipe dream" argument against EU membership's been deployed before.

Anyway, back to reading Charlie Stross' curated debate on COVID-19. Which may end up disabusing me of a few hopeful and nightmarish fantasies.
