Yup keep the case counts like this till the end of the week and I'm sure a few restrictions will be lifted on the 22nd which in turn may allow so of the smaller shops to open

Not until the hospital numbers go way down. Get those 154 who are there but don't have covid anymore home and then prob another 80 or so and yup.. hopefully soon.

The provincial trp ticked up a bit while Winnipeg went down less and less people are getting tested, that could be a good thing or could mean that people have stopped wanting to get tested especially if they have no symptoms, it's important that if you have had close contact you should get tested

Great to see the numbers going in the right direction. Personally I'd like to see things opened a little on Jan 23. Perhaps businesses at 25% capacity, non essential goods available in store, you can bubble with one other household  but with a 14 day quarantine for anybody coming from out of province.

I cautiously agree, we have to be careful with what's going on in Ontatrio and what 's starting to happen in Saskatchewan

Ontario is in full lockdown now. Stay at home order. 

Ford takes the lead in which premier can screw this up the most. Tough to take the crown from Kenney and Pallister. Well earned, Trump North, well earned.

748 deaths tho regardless of percentage tho is way less still than many other provinces. 

Obviously this means bigger population more deaths regardless of percentages so it's kind of a meh. 

It's like calling us the murder capital but only have like 55 murders. It's silly.

Lets enjoy the good news while it lasts, but lets not get complacent. If we get a week of double-digit new cases, we can breather easier.

The Winnipeg numbers matter most. We all pretty much live here. Most of the population of MB call WPG home so seeing the big city numbers go down is huge. 

Vaccinate the rest of MB first and then in I'm gonna say Early March.. when it started really last year.. restrictions can be lifted. But I'd like to also be able to buy my growing 6 yr old new pants.
