As for BBQ bat or Bat Poutine in Montreal, ah no, being from there I believe we have higher standards, well ok maybe in China town but they probably would have to run out of stray cats first.😁

Canadian officials have been talking just this morning about when they ease some restrictions there could more than likely be a second and third wave of infection so they have to carefully weigh this against getting the economy moving again too soon. Hind sight is 20/20 but can you imagine if it had been possible for all of Nord America to stop Any foreign travel from entering US, Canada and Mexico the moment we started hearing about the outbreak in China? Would have been a total mess at the time but given where we are now, I’m just saying if only we could have.

Yes you are right, all the snow birds fleeing for home. IMO nothing was done to force them or anyone else getting off a plane to self quarantine other that handing them a paper and telling them they should. How many of them got home and just went out to the store to get groceries as they would normally after being away from home for quite awhile, probably 75% of them.

Given the numbers in the US and the numbers in Canada, it is a pretty sure bet we are at an earlier stage of the viruses progress in Canada. It will be fool hardy to open the border to non essential public travel prematurely. My guess is December 20th. 2020, but that is also based on my own optimism sooo, don’t buy your passes just yet.

That high amount for the plate does make for lower private insurance costs ( fire, theft, collision, road side assistance) I pay $252 for that. My bike is a 1600 cc cruiser. When I add what I pay for the plate and the private insurance, it is similar to what some of my buddies are paying to private insurance companies in Ontario where they don’t have the mandatory government run insurance built into their lisense plate cost. The cost for a bike is excessive compared to a car but they justify it by saying a person in a motorcycle accident is more likely to be a bigger drain on the medical system in terms of cost than a person in a car accident. Like anything else you don’t pay, you don’t play I guess.

Yeah I don’t go anywhere except a trip to the grocery store every couple of weeks. Living in cottage country and on a popular motorcycle road, I started to see quite a few motorcycles coming up to ride the last 2 weeks or so, but I was reluctant to get mine out as one: I didn’t feel much like riding even just to the store and two: I didn’t want to be seen by people in my area as just another rider who wasn’t taking this seriously. Now Quebec has shut down our area to outsiders and have road blocks in place, so definitely not getting the bike out, but they were kind enough to send me my $600+ license plate renewal the other day. Oh well, I have plenty of jobs around home to keep me busy for quite awhile.

Thanks for the update and as per information the news is reporting up here Today, 3m has worked out a deal that allows them to export the masks and ramp up production to try and satisfy the US needs. I think it is important to remember that the world is intertwined globally with trading of resources, raw materials and finished products and this pandemic is a global problem and will only be solved by country’s sharing their expertise and resources to eradicate it. Together we stand stronger.

In other news, it was below freezing here in Quebec last night and snow flurries in the forecast. Trails should be good in 8 more months.

Sad to hear, my condolences to the family.

I bet they never showed on any of the US based news networks is a company in B.C. Canada is the sole supplier of the fine grade of pulp needed for the N95 masks and so President Trump’s move to block export of finished masked to Canada has made many of us Canadians to question why we don’t just keep the pulp we export and make our own. https://www.spencerfernando.com/2020/04/03/if-trump-wants-to-stop-shipping-masks-to-canada-we-can-stop-shipping-the-pulp-to-make-them/

Yes I read of the tiger getting the virus after posting this, you don’t suppose he visited the zoo too?

They say the covid -19 virus can not be transmitted to animals. I guess if he dresses up like one he is safe, good plan.👌

I don’t want to burst your bubble, but how the hell do you grocery shop in that?😂😂😂😂😂😂

Looks like it’s Halloween and the people who took all the toilet paper hit up the costume store too.

Guess social distancing is not going to work there.😩

The good news in all this, if we can find any good news, is this pandemic occurred at close to the end of the season and not at the beginning. We all have a tough road ahead of us in getting through it, but just maybe the thought of next season and the hopes that all this is behind us by then can help in some small way. Stay safe.

And that is the rub it’s not actually on her land. It is situated within the hwy 117 corridor but a new trail can not be built within 100 metres of a residence, existing trails 30 metres. I think those figures are right. The club maintained the trail was a bypass or reroute not a new trail ( I know bit of a stretch ). I believe the solution around that red tape was to get any resident living closer than the 100 metres to sign off on it. She was one resident that somehow missed being contacted in that process.

I know you said it as a joke but there are several cases of people being arrested on charges as serious as felony for purposely coughing on people during arguments related to the pandemic we find our selves in. Maybe instead give her some money get the trail open and get the word out to boycott anything she establishes to make a buck off.

Damm, you nailed it, she buys BRP and drives the company into the ground in hopes of eliminating snowmobiles!👍

I heard a month or so back from an owner of a once popular snowmobile lunch stop she wanted money to sign off on the project and “get this” her plan was to take the money and build a snowmobile relais of her own. Could be true certainly the second part is possibly an add on in the rumour mill.

You mean a bunch of deep pocketed QRiders could own BRP if they played their cards right?😁👍

Was about to ask this same question. Brp stock closed at 23.67 can yesterday. Bombardier closed at .46 can. Bombardier has been in a tail spin ever since selling their aero space division to aero bus.

Don’t forget a Canadian test driving fee should apply, I could be interested 😁

Problem is much of the infrastructure you rely on to saddle bag is closed down or will be.

Exactly.
