I don't care how much notice was given or how well it was managed, announcing a grocery closure would give us images like we see on TV with 7am Black Friday openings at Walmart or Best Buy in the US. If you give people a week to stock up, they will do so in spades and with extreme prejudice. Remember the run on TP? The public is already spooked about supply chain disruption.

Hopefully, there will NOT be a single day "Black Friday" sale, to avoid the crowds. The negative would be the early bird shoppers, who will only shop on the first day, just in case...

Actions like this are verging on contempt of society (it's not an offence - it should be!).
I'm not that familiar with the enforcement of the Emergencies Act, but the way I read it, failure to comply with an order has an out-of-court fine of $750. At the risk of tying up the courts and making more work for the police, I would be inclined to issue a summons and make everybody show up in court for, hopefully, higher penalties.

Dr. Williams should be forced to work in the ICU doing intubation for COVID-severe cases a couple week after X'mas then. He should be required to do it for a couple months. He just needs his interest aligned with the people who are on the front lines.

No wonder people keep throwing these stupid asinine parties, because they know they'll get away with it:

Honestly, why bother having these laws if you're just going to slap people with petty fines, if anything.

He should be forced to retire, now. But then who would take the heat as Doug's CMOH?
