I agree wholeheartedly with the whole thread. We all did a great job but there is no need of the high level of restrictions at this time. We can and need to reopen more and sooner.
Ppl don't seem to believe it but you CAN simultaneously hold these 3 ideas: 1) the gov't did the RIGHT thing w the lockdown & saved lives 2) we CAN safely reopen our society/economy at a faster pace & monitor 3) it DOESN'T mean you want to open *everything* right now #covid19nfld

Trying to help my boy, who was teary eyed last night after trying to canvas neighbourhood, to sell last 5 Greco pozza/GF vouchers. Will deliver to you. #CornerBrook#Greco
One of our family traditions is bringing our kids with us when we vote. I voted this morning so got hubby to take the kids this time. #parentingtips#nlpoli

OMG. Let's spend more $ we don't have. Kids walking to school is a good thing. My kids walked busiest residential street in CB (hospital traffic for 8 am shifts) in grades 1 & 2 til neighbourhood school closed.
@cbcnfldmorning Excellent news. Reduce and reuse are before recycle for good reason, especially important now when we see global problem with recycled plastic.
@Jenn_McCreath # gov staff, schools with few students, some libraries that made sense (neighbouring towns), towns and ferries that service very few people. Big, brave changes have to happen to sustain our government. Residents have to support it and stop protesting every little cut.

The U12 female hockey team in Corner Brook is looking for a goalie to play in Provincials, April 12-14, in Deer Lake. If anyone knows of a registered player that would be interested (and able to be released to CBMHA), let me know!!! @HkyNL
Want my kids to play multisports and not focus on one. Yet soccer and baseball consistently have same age groups at same times. #CornerBrook is a small place...let's work together.
@TeamCanada Most people in NL would remember as we pretty much stopped everything to watch. I was at a conference in which we stopped sessions early and rolled a TV into the hotel conference room.
Why am I seeing this crap on my feed @xcanada? I know this is revenue for you but you have not matched with my use ...which is news and local focused. Just cause I'm female? #nothappy
"the province will save $20-million in the next 20 years by resettling the community." Only one community of 71 with ferry service. Imagine the savings uf other small towns served by ferries would relocate....
@DanGallway I have seen that kind of response before. My point is @GovNL needs to reduce spending and small towns with no economic activity but costly ferry service are obvious options. We have good revenue so no need to shut the province down; just spend more responsibly.
@SheldonPeddle @JaniceJryan I always say when I get as rich as Danny Williams, I'm going all in... seal coat, hat, mitts. Already got the boots that I LOVE.
