Last week, I put out a call for people to give me their thoughts on COVID-19 and especially about the care homes. Unlike our normal practise, I didn鈥檛 ask people to provide their names as some of the stories might come back and bite the writers. I just felt that it was important that all the people who died, especially those in care, did not die in vain.

 There will be many lingering after-effects of COVID-19. Certainly the most heart-wrenching is the deaths. Over 800 people in 水果视频 have died in the year C-19 has been with us. That is just over two people per day, no less sad, but it is important to look at the context. About 30 people per day die annually in 水果视频. The death rate for 水果视频 for 2020 is reported to have been 11,226, for 2019, 1,127 and for 2018, 11,121.

鈥ast week鈥檚 column on Canada Post caused a fair bit of reaction, all confirming what I said. Canada Post has a very big top-down problem. They are out of touch with their local postal workers and local management. Warehouses, and even semi-trailers, get backed up with parcels, even the First Class mail is being delayed for days.
