Please post pictures of the following: the departure, one scenic shot during ride, at least one nice meal shot, the roadside stop by QPP, handcuffed picture, court appearance and jail cell. LOL.

One month of this is boring, but im up for it as long as it takes, dont like it but I will do it. Like I said before, If I cant get to Quebec next winter I will be sitting in my chair shaking like a crack addict. Maybe a pic of that will get me across.

NSHM Posted April 14, 2020 Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 Hopefully the outfitters,lodges and relais that we stop at in the winter that also depend on summer tourism will be able to weather this storm. It could make getting rooms tough and carrying extra gas a must. Is the Canadian government stepping up to offer any monetary help to all the businesses?

As far as I know yes there will be compensation for all small businesses that have been forced to close or directly effected by the covid 19. At least that’s what Justin keeps saying.https://pm.gc.ca/en/news/news-releases/2020/03/27/prime-minister-announces-support-small-businesses-facing-impacts PLAYHARD, MrGutz and NSHM 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doo4adoo Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 I'n not sure I would call it compensation yet. It appears to be more of tax deferral and interest free loans for a period of time. Changes daily so we'll see. I hope as many will need help. That being said our kids will e paying this forever.

Guess we will come out the other side of this with the US promoting buy from and support US based business and Canada doing the same while trying to reduce the flow of money headed China’s way. Lots of talk about that on Face Book these days “buy Canadian” is the theme. PLAYHARD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quebec bob Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 With all the new talk of cancellations, recurring infections, and this thing lasting for who knows how long...I am beginning to have my doubts about being able to ride next season. My main concern is now beginning to focus on the outfitters and their survival...with out them, we all know there is no riding .I am hoping for a fast test and an anti-body vaccination, there are more people working on this around the globe, 24/7, than ever before...good chance something will come out of this, we can at least hope!!

Snappy Hank Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 Doonali, You are on the right track with that thought. When Trump starts to open things back up, watch what happens to the stock market and other things. He will become untouchable at election time. I still think around April 30th things will start trending towards a more positive environment. Also, the corrupt Democratic Party is going to get exposed just about in time for the Democrat convention by Attorney General Barr. Wouldn’t it be nice to see Comey, Hillary, Schiff, Pelosi, Biden and a few others escorted to jail in handcuffs!!!

Opening the Canadian border to non essential travel will be a decision made in Canada, not the US, and I do not think money is the issue here, people dying is the issue, thousands are walking off the job at US meat plants for fear of contracting this virus, nobody makes money with out a work force, this thing is a big disaster and nothing is going anywhere until people are healthy and safe, that is what I want for my employees and I will not ask them to do anything outside of that, I am on the floor with them all day.

quebec bob Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 Hank, I own a tire store and an import repair shop. We repair European and Asian vehicles and maintain a fleet of Mercedes vans for a school bus / tour company. This is the start of 48 years.
