Brickbat: Grounded

The Canadian government has banned people over 12 who are not vaccinated against COVID-19 from boarding planes and trains. The policy has been in place since Oct. 30, but the government exempted those who tested negative for the disease. Under the new rules, even those who test negative won't be allowed to board if they are not vaccinated. And anyone flying or traveling by train must wear a mask. The vaccination requirement does not apply to commuter trains. It does exempt those with medical reasons for not being vaccinated as well as those traveling to remote places that can be reached only by plane, though they will still be required to provide a negative COVID-19 test.

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.

[SQRLSY One]

Hang on a few minutes... Very soon, THAT, too, will be required for you to travel anywhere! ("Crazy pills" help prevent the spread of COVID. It is known.)

[SQRLSY One]

PS, exemptions MIGHT be available (it is worth a try, at least). Buy some art from Hunter Biden.

I'm going off the rails on a crazy train.

The media sells it and you live the role

There must be a loco motive.

[Don't look at me!]

It’s plane to see.

[Chumby]

It is a boat time.

you sleigh me.

I believe in Australia if a person is upset with being locked away at the Howard Springs quarantine center, they offer Valium to help the person "get over it". So, just think our government may soon be doing the same thing. Upset with government dictates? Here, have a Valium and you will feel all better!

Having so few people for its size and having a lot of natural resources allows Canada to survive more own goals than other places. The metrosexual brigades in Vancouver, Toronto and Ottawa are steering the ship.

Reckless use of woodchippers could have prevented this.

What do earth observation satellites do in different directions? Some of them are evaluating the damage and the scale of the catastrophe, which happened as a result of a disaster on OrbitalToday. But it is more important to prevent such cases for this, data about the most powerful storm, storms, warming prediction, and other dangerous natural factors are collected.

The Canadian government has banned people over 12 who are not vaccinated against COVID-19 carrying the proper papers from boarding planes and trains.

FIFY

[Jerry B.]

Shortly, police will start stopping people traveling by car, to see if they have vaccine passports.

[Chumby]

Those authorities will be known as NineShotsGruppen

[Utkonos]

Aren’t people tired of this yet? I’d be exhausted and fuming at the same time! Our rulers need to switch gears before it comes to that! Give folks a brake!

[mad.casual]

ICE what you did there.

[Chumby]

You suggesting authorities pump the brakes on this?

[Utkonos]

Well, if I were them I’d tread lightly

[Joe Brandon]

differential preferences for risk avoidance? No, that sucked. fuck you pun-ers, I quit.

If you properly cultivate your vehicle puns, you can end up with a bumper crop.

[Utkonos]

I’ll take your Bumper crop over Uncle Joe’s Sticker shock any day!

[Utkonos]

Don’t get our hopes up. Oh wait….on second thought if you quit we’re in for a round of vicious government Harrisment!

[creech]

I wonder who determined, scientifically of course, that the virus doesn't ride commuter trains in Toronto and Montreal?

[Bubba Jones]

“ those traveling to remote places that can be reached only by plane”

I suppose you can technically drive from Montreal to Vancouver. In the winter.

Lol.

[Dillinger]

as long as the sled dogs don't require vax everything will be fine.

[Utkonos]

Are you getting all mushy on us?

[Chuck P. (The Artist formerly known as CTSP)]

The vaccination requirement does not apply to commuter trains.

Of course not. Otherwise they will look silly loading the unvaccinated onto trains to the Yukon when they reach phase VII.

[m4019597]

Germany banned the unvaccinated from assisted suicide.

I don’t think looking foolish is the biggest concern for these cruel idiots.

What about automobiles?

[mad.casual]

"You're going the wrong way!"
"How do they know where we're going?"

[Dillinger]

those aren't pillows!

[Quo Usque Tandem]

Live free, or live in Canada.

Or Great Britain, or Australia, or New Zealand, or New Jersey...

Anyone who does not see that we are being literally and increasingly herded, just agrees it should be that way.

[Frank Thorn]

Apparently Covid doesn't ride commuter trains, or when it does it always behaves itself.

[markm23]

I think commuter trains are exempted because checking everyone's papers would take too long. Have a line like the TSA to get on the subway and ride a few miles, and no one would ride the subway.
