They've had days to do the autopsies on them. What's the holdup in releasing their findings. Maybe the CDC wants to double check their findings before letting we little people in on what's up.

Put me down for Legionaries Disease.

I would not be surprised if it turns out that these folks are just sick to death of the criminal Librano regime in Ottawa.

It's in a nursing home. I'm betting it's "man made" in the sense that it will be traced to a bacteria in poorly maintained equipment of some sort.

That's my expectation, too.

Clearly it's legionaires disease.  Although that could be colored by a Philadelphia perspective...

Toronto can not be trusted. They proved that during the SARS outbreak. Until there is independent verification that the disease is confined to just the one nursing home and that there are no new cases poppin up.

Quarantine Toronto

Hanta virus would be a good second choice to Legionnaire's.

"Quarantine Canada."

OK that's a little extreme, but if the disease spreads outside of Toronto, we really should.

While we are at it, let's...

Quarantine Mexico

But that would mean closing the border.

Well if it was "Avian Flu" and they identified it as such that could cause some panic among the masses.
