Polestar cars being built in China,

Now with standard Coronavirus package and bats in the glove compartment.

Settle. Down. Even if someone infected worked on the assembly, that car will be on a boat for 30 days or more.

Pfft, I want my free bats.

So yeah... About those Chinese numbers... There's 21million less active cellphones in China today.

Can you imagine the prison / work / re-education camp totals on top of that?

Is that even remotely reputable?

Most of those were actually Trump's ideas and the Democrat's were initially blocking it. The Republicans were actually pretty far to the left of the Democrats with this crisis until recently I guess? Anyway I think it's totally overboard. A temporary increase in EI so people aren't defaulting on Mortgages, rent, etc I could see.

I'm glad Canada is taking a slightly more prudent approach.

I think one of the sticking points is that Democrats want to ensure that the bail outs will not be used to support actions such as share buy backs, which enrich the owners but not the workers.

“If you don’t go home and stay home, we’ll have to order you to go home and stay home, which we don’t want to do, so I’m ordering you to do it so we don’t have to actually order you to do it,” Trudeau said during a press conference yesterday. “Except, of course, for those of you who have to keep working. You know who you are. Hopefully.”

I googled around a bit and there's similar posts on twitter and the like but no idea about any kind of validity at all.

It was a website link...

21million is only 1.5% of Chinese population - that's actually fairly impressive.

[suntan]

And I thought my links sucked.

It's crazy the differences in canada vs america. Our measures put into place for small businesses are generally a joke. Theres hardly much of anything for anyone in canada.

Regardless who's idea it is their at least discussing major proposals. All we hear in canada is nothing is off the table. We are lacking a plan nationally at this point.

How does that speak to validity of information?
