    I’m hanging my hat on the fact that when you couple obesity rates and how close people are with each other it shows that Canada and the US could not be further apart as a valid comparison.

    zero out ny city deaths in march and april...and you still have a US covid death rate over 2.5 times Canada's

    control for different obesity rates and that gets you to a US death rate still more than twice Canada's

    and that still leaves to be considered things that work against Canada such as higher urbanization and a more northerly latitude

    How about the fact that the US sees almost 4 times the international travel?

    You’re trying too hard to blame trump when it clearly had little to nothing to do with him.

    ha...you forget canada on a proportional basis has more people who have emigrated from china...the chinatowns in toronto and montreal are enormous

    nice try

    5.1% of Canadians are of Chinese origin

    1.2% of Americans

    "by far" more in Canada to coin a phrase

    and yet that awful Wuhan virus hit us a lot harder

    The virus was circling the globe since mid 2019. At that point anyone could have had and spread it.

    You know that but again bad faith posting.

    it would seem to me logical that the early spread would concentrated among people travelling to and from China...and Canada has very strong demographic, cultural and business ties to China...but since that works against your argument i guess we can dismiss it

    any way you cut it or dice it there are strong indications that our policy has been much less effective in preventing spread and saving lives than Canada's

    oh and Trudeau as far as I know never recommended that Canadians listen to Dr Stella or any Canadian version of Dr Stella

    very poorly chosen one's magic realism when it comes to denialism and endorsement of wacko people like Dr Stella will go down in history as truly one of the greatest disasters in leadership this country has ever experienced...imagine FDR claiming someone like Dr Stella had a magic weapon that would make German and Japanese fighter planes fall out of the sky...what a disaster the past 4 years have been

    Based on some quick googling it looks like Canada gets 1/4 of the travelers from China that the US does so when you payer that with density your argument falls short yet again.

    Nearly 400,000 people in Texas are still under a boil water order

    two weeks after the winter storm that broke the energy grid,

    but, sure, Greg Abbott's the leader you wanna trust with your health.


    let's hope he is right

    I don't "trust anyone with MY health".

    That's one of the dumbest things you have posted.

    Literally- Abbott doesn't have any say so in my health decisions.

    Incredible how useless the left is where they look to others to instruct them how to live their lives.
