Looks like Germany will be testing before us and I believe they are in a similar state infection wise, so I'm sure they'll keep a close eye on their situation to help determine what to do.I think we will, if anything, lock down further. We have been preaching patience and further distancing too much to suddenly do otherwise.
And if Trump tries anything, it might be the first time we actually bring the big playing cards to the table.

we have just as much say in opening that border as the States. If we don't think it's safe, it won't happen
Before the border was closed I remember how many people were coming back from the states into Ontario and testing positive. I think at one point they made up the majority of new cases.

Yeah, I do recall the days (which seems long ago now) with just a handful of new cases which were all from travel. Cases from travel to the US started to pick up and become concerning right before community transmission.IIRC, initial reports showed that in the early days, the majority of cases were from inbound or returning travellers as the source. In the 70 to 80% range(granted keep in mind this was when we were below 100 total cases). Then there was a slow but steady, to eventually a linear scale increase to our community transmission cases, which eventually overtook the returning traveller case ratios.
We need deploy all our returning geese at the border.
That should keep them away.
really? I thought the CERB through EI would be deposited next week after people do this Friday's report.
Yup! Got mine this morning, but I've never done it through EI. I applied through My CRA.

I've been lurking this thread and am curious.

Portal went up on the 6th, but it was retro-dated to have month 1 start on March 15. I applied on the 6th (my birthday is early in the year) and got $2000 two days later.Wait, the portal just went up on the 6th and you've gotten two payments by applying twice?

CERB payments have been weird. I have two payments on mine, but I had mine rolled over from EI. Both came in on the same day with the first one being $1000 and the second was $2000. My assumption was $1000 for March, $2000 for April, but I have nothing to confirm that. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯Wait, the portal just went up on the 6th and you've gotten two payments by applying twice?

Did you do your EI reports? The payment info will show up a bit after you submit them
Before I did my last set of reports, Service Canada was only showing payment information for 2 payments of $500 for March. There was nothing indicating where the second deposit of $2000 came from. I did another set of reports yesterday and it's now showing 2 more payments of $500 for the last two weeks and a note saying that the payment for that has been released to me. Nothing new has hit my account yet, but we'll see in a day or two.
Marilyn Gladu, the former Conservative health critic, said the Liberals are talking about waiting for a vaccine — but that could take years.
"In the United States, they've been successful with the treatment of hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin and zinc sulphate," said Gladu. "They've tried this on thousands of COVID patients, with nearly 100 per cent recovery rate, and so the FDA has approved this as an emergency measure, but Canada has not."

"Every [COVID-19] death is tragic. But, the reality is more people are dying of suicide, more people are dying from cancer and smoking and we don't shut the economy down for that. So, where we see that there's a remedy available and we see that for most of the population this is not a concern, people are losing their businesses in Sarnia-Lambton, they're losing their livelihoods and there's no end in sight."
I received $500 today from EI. I don't get it how it works. I already got $2,000 this month. Shouldn't I get the next batch of payments next month?
I applied through EI which will be converted to CERB. I guess this is the CERB thru Service Canada. I already got $2,000 from them with $1,000 when I was out of work in March. I don't know why I got $500 again. Anyway, if I'm really going back to work in the next month. I'll just give them a call to claw them back.From what I learned and saw, you can receive 500 $ weekly for the period of 4 weeks (so 2000 $ total) if you applied for CERB thru Service Canada.
Whereas if you applied thru CRA, it's 2000 $ for the whole period of 4 weeks, at once.
