Oh Canada - a photo on Flickriver

Oh Canada

            Happy belated Canada Day, from the 2010 archives, from the Lake O'Hara hike in the Rockies.  Long rant about covid regulations in Canada and Mexico below:

During my recent trip in Mexico, one hotel I stayed in offered Canadian TV channels, and I watched it one morning.  It was an eye opener.  In  mid-June 2021 they were discussing the possibility of opening the border between..... Ontario and Quebec!!!  I know they closed the international border but between provinces??  .  I never thought I would say these words, but I'm glad I wasn't living in Canada during the pandemic.  Oh, I heard Australia was even worse, the rules in Mexico are also so random, the police stop you in the middle of nowhere to spray hour hands with sanitizer and sometimes you have to go through a spray of disinfectant and wipe your shoes in it, ......yes that would prevent anyone from getting sick if I had the virus and they licked my hair, my shoes or my shirt.  Most archeological sites and even some outdoor roadside viewpoints are either completely or partially closed and barricaded, yet indoor dining is allowed and public transport is packed to capacity, I guess the virus only spreads in breezy outdoor settings in Mexico.
