Retailers ask Ontario government to lift COVID-19 restrictions in Toronto, Peel Region
TORONTO — A coalition of about 50 retailers is calling on the Ontario government to lift COVID-19 restrictions for non-essential stores it claims is making things worse.
In an open letter to Premier Doug Ford and Health Minister Christine Elliott, the retailers argue that shutting down Toronto and Peel Region to restrict the virus’s spread hasn’t reduced the number of shoppers.

F#cking Assholes: Trudeau Liberals partnered with vaccine company CanSino that Communist China uses to steal western research and technology
Top executives at CanSino Biologics — the Chinese company involved in a failed COVID-19 vaccine collaboration with Canada — were also part of a Chinese government program designed to incentivize people to transfer research and knowledge to China in exchange for salaries, funding and other benefits.
Several former Canadian Security Intelligence Service officials interviewed by Global News said that CanSino’s Canadian-educated scientists were likely seen as potential assets by Chinese Communist Party information collection networks.
And one of the Canadian security consultants, said the agency responsible for the CanSino collaboration— the National Research Council (NRC) — should have seen red flags surrounding a CanSino partnership.
FUREY: Retail sector makes up less than 0.1% of Ontario cases, new data says
Newly-released open data from the Ontario government confirms, just in time for the Christmas shopping season, that the entire provincial retail sector has only been directly linked to 106 cases of COVID-19 since the pandemic began.
That would account for less than 0.1% of the approximately 116,000 Ontario cases to date. That 106 is also not all shoppers acquiring the virus, but includes retail employees who have been infected by co-workers.
U.K. approves Pfizer coronavirus vaccine for emergency use
British officials authorized a COVID-19 vaccine for emergency use on Wednesday, green-lighting the world’s first shot against the virus that’s backed by rigorous science and taking a major step toward eventually ending the pandemic.
The go-ahead for the vaccine developed by American drugmaker Pfizer and Germany’s BioNTech comes as the virus surges again in the United States and Europe, putting pressure on hospitals and morgues in some places and forcing new rounds of restrictions that have devastated economies.

Terence Corcoran: Canada’s cost of pandemonics tops $1.5 trillion
The Trudeau Liberals’ fall economic statement stumbles through 200-plus pages of verbal political unreadable claptrap about building back better COVID-19 resilient green gender prudent fiscal stimulus affordable jumpstarted racial equality childcare climate solutions and employee stock option decisive dynamic Indigenous inclusive net-zero cross-border digital tax cut increases. At the end of this onslaught, which is all too typical of annual federal budgetary documents, Canadians are left with two big numbers.
LILLEY: Trudeau tries to spin his government’s lack of detail on vaccines
After a week of being battered over the issue of Canadians getting COVID-19 vaccines later than other countries, the Trudeau Liberals attempted some defence on the issue. I’m not sure it worked.
The problem began last Tuesday when Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said that COVID vaccines are being produced in other countries and that Canadians would not get the first doses because, “Canada no longer has any domestic production capacity for vaccines.” That claim about Canadian vaccine production is false but let’s set that aside for now.
Rex Murphy: Adamson Barbecue and the epidemic of snobbery
Everyone faces the health risks of this moment, but not everyone risks losing their business
People have picked up on some of the outside or secondary dimensions of the BBQ standoff.
The tight COVID regime has much to do with it, certainly. But leaking through the high thoughts about public health and personal responsibility are strands of comment and observation far distant from either.
