@ElectionsCan_E gets full marks for taking proactive steps to reassure Canadians about the integrity of our elections. Condolences to EC staff now getting dragged into the blazing dumpster fire that is the U.S. presidential election.
Van, thank you for expressing the sorrow and relief that we all feel. My hope is that those who hoped for a different outcome will take a moment to empathize with the pain so many of us have felt over the past four years.
Friesen asked why no major signage in Winnipeg notifying the public of orange pandemic risk.

Great leaders’ ability to consistently take the temperature of a given situation and offer a note-perfect response may seem like a sixth sense. More likely, it’s because they’re asking, listening, acting, and refining. Then doing it again. ~ @davidleibl#listening

Why didn’t the mainstream media tell us that the coronavirus was infectious and you should practice social distancing and wear a mask to prevent it from spreading?
If it were a movie the scene where the president gets the virus 30 days before the election would be cut for being campy and clumsily overwrought but it's 2020 and so here we are.
Preliminary findings:
-🐶can sniff out Covid.
- They can detect the virus from a smaller molecular sample than required by standard PCR lab tests;
- It's cheaper to let the dogs sniff the samples than testing them in a lab.
Amazing.
