Manitoba made a similar announcement re the 4 month delay on second dose Wednesday. They weren’t quite as bold as committing to first doses by June as there has been no confirmation of dose numbers from the feds yet. Sounds like J&J will be approved by end of month. Summer travel and butts in seats at IGF is starting to sound possible again.

I hear you and I am sorry for your suffering. I am not sure any government can be blamed for you going bankrupt, you are in the unfortunate position of being in the industry that will be most and longest affected. You are a true entrepreneur and will hustle and get through it. Like all the best ones you will find a way.

Meanwhile in Texas (7620 new cases and 266 deaths today), mask mandate has been rescinded and businesses can operate at 100%. “ We are doing the best we have in 5 months and are on pace to vaccinate 1,000,000 people per week.”

I am not sure why you think not being enforced. We’ve been out three times and each time had to affirm we were same household. I didn’t see any obvious violations either.

I expect some loosened conditions this week but we will be level red until the end of March at least. They couldn’t move us to orange without loosening travel or gathering restrictions. I am not hopeful but would love to see the household restrictions on restaurants lifted. It make no sense that my MIL can come here for supper but we can’t go out together.

I suspect the numbers are bouncing up and down based on the timing of yest results from the North. From what I understand they are doing rapid tests on reserve but only announcing them once lab confirmed. That is likely why some days are higher than others.

Not until they apply to Health Canada to make that change. They have applied to the FDA in the US but sounds like they haven't even asked Health Canada yet and we know they are slower to approve than GB or USA.

Need a Hug? Seriously, I hate not being able to hug someone I haven’t seen in a while. I work in an industry that people and relationships are as important as product and the distanced physical contact just lacks “feels” and it has been one of the hardest parts of the pandemic for me.

I was wondering if they are part of the NHL’s increased Covid19 protocols.

Others have said it so I won't beat on it too much. I haven't listened to a Jets post game show in years, no clue if 1290 was good or what CJOB offers. I usually listen to the Bombers post game on the drive home from the stadium but that's it and once they go to callers I am searching for something else usually cursing traffic for not getting me home before that torture begins.

It hadn’t really occurred to me until this morning when I heard the ad but Dr Jay moved his advertising to CJOB last month and more than just the Jets games. That move alone should have foreshadowed the end of TSN1290. I feel for all the people that lost jobs, for the on air guys it likely will be the end of their media careers.

You are failing to understand that the caught it because their precautions worked and the transmission chain ended. Really is a non story other than a reminder to everyone that we need to be careful and reinforces the need for travel restrictions.

Go back and watch the full presser. Was talked about immediately after announcing the changes in orders. Answered more than a couple questions including the date of they original test ( Jan 21) , test sent for sequencing as they started doing with all international tests, 5 household contacts who needed to isolate for 24 days to ensure not spread. Being the infectious disease expert you are what else should they have done? https://youtu.be/rIesIG2m31c

Live broadcast conference with Roussin and Pallister at the desks. Questions from media. How is this hiding the info? Roussin said he found out about the result approx 9pm Monday night, 11am Tuesday they are telling us. Just proves that you can do everything right and someone is still going to **** on you.

I wouldn’t expect any local on air talent. I expect it will be full on remote programming with playback of previously recorded bits. Much like comedy stations on satellite but cleaner.

They’ve had an evening sports show for a couple years. I don’t have the radio on I the evening so have never listened. They added two new for Jets broadcasts and promoted at least one other from part time to regular show. Playing my ” Old man card” they’ve always been my go to for sports coverage. Only time I listened to 1290 was the pregame drive on my way o a Jets game. Could barely listen to those guys shilling their Boston Pizza pregame schtik.

Puingassi First Nation is in this district and has been struggling this week. A couple other reserve on the East side of Lake Winnipeg as well. Not making light of the situation at all but it would be much easier to get them the help they needed if they had allowed the road to be built.

Who is this CBC play by play guy? Too busy watching the game to tell us about it. Should have made the effort to sync the CJOB feed.

Thank you for this analysis, makes a lot of sense.

I don’t know enough about Dubois to just whether I like this or not from the hockey side. From the Winnipeg side of the game this makes us look bad to fans across the league. When I talk to my friends I. The US the player they talk about is Laine. I’ve already been asked what sucks so much about Winnipeg that no one wants to stay there?

Trudeau purposefully circumvented the procedures Harpers government put in place to prevent another Adrienne Clarkson fiasco. JT hand picked Payette Andy should wear his disaster.

I took in the Cocoabeans Gluten Free entry in to Fried Chicken week and was very happy to eat some decent fried chicken for the first time in almost three years.

Looks like I am wrong and Burger Factory still exists. I must be thinking of a different place.

Haven’t they been closed for years? Been a decade or longer since I have grossed myself out with their food.

Old Burger Factory spot?
