Opinion

Editor: I would like to say I agree with your stories about the disrespect people have for others regarding this COVID-19 outbreak. I’ve been watching them at the Cariboo track and field beside Cariboo Secondary.

Editor: We are now into our second month of social distancing/self-isolation and there doesn’t appear to be an end to this soon.

We’re at the finger-pointing stage of the pandemic now. That’s the part where we demand to know why our leaders A) didn’t see this coming, or B) saw it coming but failed to react quickly or decisively enough to head it off.

We are all living in a period of high anxiety, distress and uncertainty as COVID-19 has upended our lives.

A small drama played out over social media then through a lawyer's statement this past week, after a man got caught spitting on an elevator's buttons in Mt Pleasant. Who is this man? We have no idea.

The long weekend was sunny and warm, and things in Burnaby will be getting even hotter this week. The latest weather forecast from Environment Canada shows highs up to 18C in the middle of this week. Just ignore it.

Editor: I don't understand how closing groceries stores, pharmacies, banks fast food outlets and gas stations earlier than usual is any help to not spreading the virus? It puts a larger number of people to be there in a smaller time frame.

B.C. is not only faring better than most other provinces in dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic, but it’s also ahead when it comes to a key public health action.

Editor: Re: Burnaby park users showed why parks should be closed , NOW Opinion I strongly support efforts to keep public parks open in Burnaby.

Late last month, B.C. Premier John Horgan announced a freeze on evictions during the COVID-19 crisis (with some exceptions).
