Again, you can take numbers and prove anything. Ontario has about a population of 14.5 Million with 996 deaths. Florida has a population of 20.2 million with 1218 deaths with the oldest population in the US. Who is winning?

Who knows how many are actually infected. This entire deal is a manipulated numbers game to support agendas regardless of which side of the fence you are on. Me, I am going to live my life taking into account China flu, but in no way is it going to put a halt to my normal life. I understand folks like to take potshots at the US, it has always been that way. You can only apply infection and fatality rates to the entire population to get a true picture. If you take European countries, lump them together to get to a population number equal to the US, their fatality rate is double.

That is fine, it is still a minuscule number. I concede that I was wrong on the decimal point. Yay for y'all.

I am aware of that and it really isn't a problem to do so even though it would be impossible to enforce. The gentleman that I talked with was super nice and informative. He said for TW to have her birth certificate as well as something to prove Canadian property ownership and if the restrictions are still in place at that time having a covid test and have the results with us. WE know it will be a hassle to cross so if it adds a day to the trip, so be it. We will have to stop for gas after crossing but that can be done from the pump and I will have to pee at least once but for anyone that fishes, that isn't a problem. After we cross in Detroit it is about 7 hours to the cottage if we take the 407.

It will happen. I am not the type to not be prepared. I have directly contacted CBSA and there is a procedure for it. The wife is still a Canadian citizen with a Canadian passport with immediate relatives living in Canada. A foreign national who is an immediate family member of a Canadian citizen or permanent resident is exempt from the travel restrictions and permitted to travel to Canada if they have the required travel documents.

I have done that and used words that I invented on the spot because there were no suitable known words for the event.

I am sure there will be some indignation when we show up the second week of June with Alabama plates. 😐

Our corporate tax rates are high, personal tax rates aren't too bad if you understand the tax code and have a good CPA. The thing with Canadian taxes that blows me away are the death taxes. Since you like the big CC's, this is a video from down here on the Bama coast. 39 Ft NorTech @ 94.1 mph. Guy that owns Grander Marine made his fortune with Waffle Houses.

I have never paid much attention to the tax statement. we just have it set up for automated quarterly payments out of the Canadian account at Scotia. I think it is way too high but then I do the eagles to maple leafs discount and I feel a little better. The main reason that I think it is high is that for the tax we have hardly any service. About the only thing is supposedly fire and police, but we are so far out the cottage would be ashes before they got here. we have no water, sewage ...no anything. I am with you, I think the $750 ticket is a rumor that got fed on the internet.
-
To my knowledge we don't have the seasonal residential deal in Napanee, or at least nothing is designated on the property tax bill. Now this is just my opinion, but before I believe the $750 ticket, I am going to have to see a copy of it. As far as the smoking, is the food starting to taste better and food smell better cooking? when I quit, it took a few months before all of my senses sort of got back to normal.

Could you not social distance just as good there?

Not sure about the availability up there, but I have used this on my aluminum boat trailers. https://www.amazon.com/Toon-Brite-B1000-Aluminum-Cleaner-Gal/dp/B001443NF0

Not by the calculator that I used. https://calculator.com/standard-tape/

Yes the media is doing it to sensationalize. Why do you need a website. 45000 divided by 330,000,000 = .00014%. I simply used a calculator.
-
I didn't say that at all. I said raw numbers with no correlation to population are being used for ratings. Especially now that NY is counting "suspected" corona deaths with no facts in the official count. 45,000 sounds much more sensational than .00014% of the population.
-
I don't disagree, by the same token raw numbers are thrown out for sensationalism and ratings. If the actual fatality rate was used, it wouldn't be as sensational.
-
Rather than looking at a raw number (45,000) I try to look at things in context. There is approx. 330M population in the US. I have found this to be the most agenda free actual facts site. https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ It just gives you data and demographics, not a talking head interpretation of what is going on.
-
The flip side is that the fishing isn't very good in Manhattan. The problem to me is the one size fits all. I will admit that I have never been good with following "rules" that defy common sense.
-
I think in a way that it is with NYC being the epicenter in the US. It does show that with common sense things can be opened up and the entire state is not a one size fits all. Look at Michigan. They have a problem with the Detroit area but impose the most draconian rules in the country on the entire state. The UP ain't Detroit.
-
New York, New Jersey and Connecticut have opened all marinas and boatyards.
-
Never had a problem with that. Except for one chrys van, everything else is Honda and Toyota products. You can probably guess which one is the problem child. My old Ridgeline has probably been the most bullet proof vehicle I have ever owned. Built in Alliston.

The US is no longer dependent on any other country for energy. Give it a year or two and the price will be back. The US and Canada, well most of the non third world of the planet has an insatiable appetite for fossil fuel and it ain't changing anytime soon.

Sounds like a plan to me. Name any business that collects funds for a product or service then denies access to what you have already paid for.

Are cottage owners going to get a property tax rebate because they can't use their property?
