Roy Horn had been in failing health for years ever since he was injured by one of his Big Cats.  The story said he suffered a stroke onstage with the Tiger the night he was attacked. I'm  sure Covid 19 just hastened the process.  He would have been in the high risk category.

I would bet that the people around Trump, Pence and Ivanka have been forbidden to wear masks as it might make Trump's narrative of "no big deal" look bad

805 out of 37,000,000 people and you bankrupt the CFL, not to mention all the other damage. Right.

Be careful on that descent from Mt. Stupid. Dunning-Kruger Land is unforgiving territory and very few can traverse the Valley of Despair. Best of luck. I hope you didn't pack too much tinfoil.

There is an outbreak at the main Canada Post facility in downtown Calgary. Six employees have tested positive for Covid 19. How long until CUPE wants it shut down which would mean mail disruption across the country.

Do you not think they should shut down a place when there's an outbreak? Do you think people should be forced to work when sick and infectious to everyone around them?

How else will I get my dominos pizza flyer?

But seriously, mail is pretty essential still. So it isn't as cut and dried as just close it down.

So much "mail" is electronic now that the postal service is almost irrelevant. Still, a lot of people who are not computer literate or do not have a computer and rely on Canada Post.

Most businesses still send bills in the mail, plenty of cheques too.

If it wasnt for the packages CP could easily be cut down to 3 days a week snail mail at a minimum.

Packages and mail are sorted by different groups.  It is the flyers that if they were removed would allow for them to work at a reduced schedule.   Unfortunately since CP went to a crown corporation many years back... they need that flyer money big time.

Not a chance. Canada Post's volumes are sufficiently high enough to warrant a 5-day per week schedule, especially with the rise in online shopping thanks to Amazon, eBay, Rakuten, etc.

  No one said they should work if there's an outbreak.  AHS would close it down.

The only way is massive cheating and/or the pandemic flaring up that keeps masses of people from voting.   In a fair fight they lose.  Easily.

Can’t wait for trump to publicly express his admiration for famed actor Robert Redford and congratulate him on being head of the CDC. 

[SpeedFlex27]

Trump sure is the Teflon Don. Everyone around him is getting sick but him.
