Shut it down - for real

Dear Editor:

An open letter to MPP Ted Arnott and Premier Doug Ford.

I am writing to express to you my views on the province of Ontario’s effort to stem the tide of COVID-19 and its variants. We all want this nightmare to end ASAP, so you should spend every effort and expense to get everyone vaccinated quickly –  priority one.

You want to shut down the province, then shut down the province. Do not allow schools to open, do not allow churches to open, do not allow marijuana dispensaries to open, do not allow beer stores to open, do not allow LCBO stores to open, do not allow playgrounds to open (how can you expect a child to mask-up). If you really want to end the problem, then we all will have to be a little uncomfortable for 30 days.
