Oof. Wish I'd remembered this before I ordered something the other day with Canada Post shipping.

Honestly, Manitoba may not be a bad choice for you (unless the no mountains thing is a deal breaker).

  • left leaning government for at least another three years
  • $120k CAD salary will be very comfortable anywhere in the province
  • cold as balls half the year (since you're okay with cold)
  • lots of farmland for locally grown food

Manitoba has, uh... hills ;)

But also has a left leaning government (for at least another three years, probably longer with our voting patterns) and low CoL. $120k CAD can be very comfortable here, even in Winnipeg.

In Toronto or Vancouver, you'd be a peasant.

In Winnipeg, you'd be a king.

You forgot about Manitoba (that's okay, everyone does lol). We're safe from a willfully destructive government for at least another three years.

How do I delete someone else's lemmy comment?

I literally said "oh NOooo" aloud in a Mario-like cadence without even thinking when I read this headline. It's sad to see him go, he was such a perfect fit for the job in every way.

There are so many vectors for infection that it is kinda silly to try.

This statement, in and of itself, is silly. That's like giving up on washing your hands and sterilizing equipment because it's just too much effort.

Unless you're frequently digging for gold with unwashed hands, SARS-COV-2 transmission enormously favours the airborne vector.

That's the reason I don't enter a hospital without my fit-tested N99.

1.4 of 38-odd million is absolutely not rare, it's nearly 1 in 50. The US figures are even worse. For something to be considered medically rare, it needs to be at most 1 in 10,000.

I had to visit the ER a few weeks ago. Aside from me, there were two or three other people in masks, and they were patients.

I just don't understand it. Medical professionals should know better, but somehow don't??

Yes, yes you should. The sheer size of the map is mind blowing!
