This is not sustainable.

As much as we struggle with trying to keep a junior kindergartener on line for six hours a day, and a grade two student engaged and excited to learn, the thought of sending them back to school in person is keeping me up at night. On the plus side in another thirteen days my grade two will have developed her second dose immunity and could potentially go back – maybe. But we’ll be into July before my youngest can even have one dose, and mid August for her second, so I don’t know what to do about her. Sending her back to these unprotected, unguarded schools in total disarray seems more like a punishment than a service at this point. Yes she can be trying at times, aggravates me to no end, but I do not wish her dead, nor so severely ill as the affect her entire future. Seems like those of us with unvaccinated kindergartners (not for lack of trying or desire for it) will need to keep them separated from their friends until they turn five or the government health ministers lower the age for juvenile COVID-19 vaccinations.

However, I think that the return will be short lived as classes close down, or condense together and education stops or gets repeatedly interrupted and the whole lot just becomes a day camp of bored, sick disaffected youths bundled together watching friends and family get sick. Not a real high point for “mental health” champions. I don’t know about you but being lonely at home is preferable to watching my friends potentially getting so sick they die or are permanently injured in one way or another.

And where the fuck are all of the other party leaders here, surely 22 months in a coalition could have been formed to pressure the party of Doug Ford to actually put in place safety measures that count, or to spend the money they’ve been given by the federal government. Billions unspent, billions misplaced, disappearing ministers and a no show premiere. Doing Ontario proud there boys and girls.

No ambulances in some areas for anything what so ever. Reports of fire fighters calling taxis and Uber ride shares to send car accident victims to over crowded hospitals. What a fucking mess. I bet this tracks well with fans of his.
