Rumour mill has it that the Ontario government is going to mandate a complete lock down on all businesses, much like what is happening in Europe. Groceries and pharmacies stay open as well as gas stations. This is turning into a very big s...t storm if true. We should hear sometime tomorrow.
Covid 19 affecting car sales and everything else
- Thread starter tyho
- Start date
Wonder it laundering the money would get rid of the virus! LOLThey just announced they are closing all the casinos in Ontario tomorrow. Thats a huge cash cow for the government. Plus a good place to launder money. They might have to start laying off criminals. Chit is getting real.
l will self isolate in my C8 l doubt the Virous can catch me at 195mph .
Looks like they can take of any problems that might arise. LOLI heard they shut down this famous street here in Pattaya

I'm "Self-isolating" (yes the newest annoying catchphrase) but at least medical help is always nearby....
Well, no doubt there will be fallout everywhere. Yes the market is down, it will rebound and panic selling now helps no one. While we can debate the severity of the risk of this virus to many as being low, it will kill some. I for one would not want to have transmitted this to anyone. Social distancing while inconvenient, is a small price to pay to try to knock it down early. I hear that summer heat will help so the time of year is better for North America just heading into warm weather. Try to stay positive, don't hord the toilet paper. The old keep calm and carry on sounds like a plan to me.
I don't "like" it, but I do agree with it. We all need to do our part and self isolate for a while.
Latest on the news was the spike in AB. Someone went to some sort of party/function and seven others tested positive after that.
So YEAH, self isolate if you even have the sniffles and keep your distance. If you are home you don't need to stock up on Purell. Ordinary hand with soap is just as effective.
Some cases can be really mild and present more as a common cold. Not everyone needs to rush off to the emergency just because they are feeling a bit under the weather. If it intensifies then is the time to start making calls to the hotlines.
Ones life can change quickly, as this Corona Virus has shown. Thankfully not as bad in Canada (yet). as in Europe and America. There are much more important things to worry about than getting a new 2020 Corvette. I was told that @ a Costco store in town (a so called man) punched a lady arguing over of all things toilet paper. This Pandemic brings out the worse in some people. I hope all on here and their families stay safe during this time.
Here in Calgary, schools are closed till September. All City operated recreation facilities, swimming pools, gyms, libraries, churches post secondary institutions, and all meeting places where 250 or more can gather are either closed, cancelled or postponed.
There goes car show season.
There goes car show season.
These measures are all reactive. They should have been pro-active once they saw how it was spreading in China. I know hind site is 20/20 but all the signs were there.
Never happen on that scale Canadas economy is way different than that of Europe s**t down our trade and we will be in the stone age in a week.
That is true. We are a bit ahead of many countries though which give me hope that we might avoid the worst of it. Also way more testing here.
