Ford: I heard that Cockburn Island is the only unpopulated municipality in our fair province. It would be a great place to stuff those with COVID-19 in.
Reporter: Uh Mr. Ford, Cockburn Island isn't exactly uninhabited. There's one or two people living there.
Ford: But Statistics Canada says that Cockburn Island is uninhabited and that's that. If there's actually people there, they would get stuffed with those with COVID-19.

The rain of hypocrites continues...............
This time its the CEO of Niagara Health who was off enjoying the Dominican Republic over the holidays.
The article:
Ontario hospital CEO resigns from COVID-19 advisory groups after holiday trip to the Caribbean
Dr. Thomas Stewart, the CEO of St. Joseph’s Health System and Niagara Health, has apologized and resigned for taking a vacation to the Dominican Republican as COVID-19 surges in Ontario.www.thestar.com
From the article:
Dr. Thomas Stewart, the CEO of two major hospitals in Ontario, has resigned from several COVID-19 advisory groups after taking a vacation to the Dominican Republic during the holidays.
****
He returned from his 19-day vacation on Tuesday, all while COVID-19 cases have been rising in Ontario.
****
While having resigned from some advisory panels, he remains the CEO of the hospitals in question.
One down...............The hospital CEO who went on a an extended tropical vacation over the holidays has been let go as CEO of Niagara Health.
Now if his other CEO job would do the same...........
Ontario hospital CEO who travelled to Dominican Republic removed from one position, but fate at another remains unclear
Tom Stewart was removed from his role as CEO of the Niagara Health network of hospitals, but the status of his position at St. Joseph’s Health System in Hamilton is still unknown

Gee, I wonder if some were out Xmas shopping & congregating outside of their immediate family bubble.
The positivity rate of 12-13 year olds is 20%. https://toronto.ctvnews.ca/ontario-...3xb0CeVReTXU2sxHmFvs8Vyyf1xLJ-GPsFVd_aT906Yb0
But ... “The Ford government continues to insist that schools are not a source of transmission, despite the increase in positivity rates taking place while students were still in school.”

Why do I get the feeling stricter restrictions are on the way.
Apparently Ford will be making an announcement on education today.

And there are so many people online still downplaying this. Record number of deaths, containers of dead bodies, rationing care. Nothing is ever enough for those people. They rationalize all of these things. Every step of the way, every warning from professionals, they mocked.Ontario broke some more grim records. 3,519 new cases, and 89 people have lost their lives.

Imagine being on your death bed with Covid while seeing thousands of vaccinations taking place daily.
Hard to imagine a more bitter end.

I don't wish to down play this; but I do think its important to note that its the case growth percentage you want to watch closely to decipher a trend.
The increase is new cases is 1.75% which is actually down from yesterday, though still near our high......it most certainly needs to come down (duh) but .....its important to take the numbers in context.
The hospital situation looks fairly stable today; through remains strained at some institutions. (hospital admissions were up by 9, and ICU by 2.)

That would suck, no way around it.
Though I could probably lists off dozens of equally miserable ways to go.
Which doesn't take away from the misfortune of the currently ill or recently deceased at all.
