The question of the moment shouldn’t be are we reopening too fast in Ontario. It should be are we reopening too slowly. This week Alberta and Saskatchewan announced that they were moving toward dropping all COVID-19 restrictions by the end of the month.
Some Ontario urban dwellers might be quick to believe this is because these provinces are filled with uneducated hayseed farmers who don’t know better. There’s a pandemic going on and these rednecks are just denying it!
Yet these redneck provinces are behind the most sophisticated, educated and urbane countries in Europe — the Scandinavian nations. Denmark, Norway and Sweden have all either dropped most COVID restrictions or announced they’re about to.
