    Wouldn't an empty school be the best place to practice social distancing for teachers??

    Just happy your not making decisions on our kids education. Parents who care want things done properly.
    "you're"

    Properly, indeed.

    Not when they're all huddled in the teachers break room, drinking from the same whiskey bottle.

    They are actually working in their own individual classrooms. So the argument of distancing is pretty moot for them. When they come together for meetings sure.

    The bigger risk is possibly the gathering of all their children at school with them since they are allowing it? I know there are some parents that are bringing their teenage kids to watch all the other children. Not sure how big of a population you could get that way, but could become a problem.

    our company decided to use Windows Virtual Desktop and RDP to the head office for contingency, and WVD seems to be overloaded in general right now lol.
    Some users have Citrix and VPN option as well but leadership is steering for WVD

    Quebec workers in isolation due to coronavirus to receive $573 weekly
    https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montr...tion-1.5499561

    The Quebec government will give $573 a week to workers who are being told to self-isolate due to the novel coronavirus.

    Labour Minister Jean Boulet said the government doesn't want workers to succumb to pressure to keep working if they are showing COVID-19 symptoms or if they have recently returned from abroad.

    The provincial aid will be given out to people who can't work because they are in self-isolation and aren't eligible for other means of compensation, such as employment insurance or paid leave from their employer.


    The people who are supposed to be in self-isolation are those who have the virus, have symptoms of the virus, have been in contact with someone who is infected or are coming back from abroad.

    A form to apply for the funding will be available by Thursday and should take about 48 hours to process, Boulet said. The money will be directly deposited in recipients' accounts, he said, so people in isolation will not have to leave their homes.

    "We really want to diminish the pressure on those who are not eligible for revenue replacement programs, such as employment insurance," said Boulet at a news conference Monday.

    The government has set aside $150 million to provide the short-term financial assistance to about 65,000 workers.

    The money will be available for a period of two to four weeks.

    Premier François Legault said he spoke with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau earlier Monday and is expecting a similar program to be announced by the federal government.

    He said there will be no overlap between the provincial and federal programs, once both are in place.

    Legault said in order to stimulate the economy, the government will also work to speed up infrastructure spending and will announce a number of other measures in the coming days and weeks.

    He said in the coming days, other measures will be announced for companies such as restaurants and theatres.

    I am 100% on RDP for remoting and it is working flawlessly.

    Hooked up to a single 27” 4K monitor running at native resolution and I can hardly tell it’s not on-board.

    I think the Telus fibre latency is helping a ton, even with a shitty USB-Ethernet dongle.

    I have a VPN on my company issued surface but I have no idea why I would bother with it.

    Just wish I had a USB-C dock to go one cable with my XPS-15

    I have to use Citrix into RDP to get access and it's horrifically slow today. Yesterday was fine, I wonder if people just gave up yesterday when there was issues and took the day off.

    It's still usable but changing windows or anything that has to re-draw the display is slowwwwwwww

    I sent my first guy home from the construction site I’m at. His wife is a nurse at Peter Lougheed and was starting to feel ill this morning, now is full of meds. I’ve finished my IKEA cabinet hoarding so I’m good at home for 2 weeks, need be.

    Connected to a vendor's recurring weekly Teams call earlier today and no issues at all. Screen sharing (including showing off some mapping functionality) and call quality were perfect.

    @gwill my comment still applies. It's ridiculous to think that people need to be in the same physical place to collaborate effectively. Get real.
