Quebec officials announced Monday that they are taking the drastic step of throwing the province into a lockdown amid an explosion of Omicron cases.

“The situation is critical. The explosion of cases is overwhelming,” Health Minister Christian Dubé said at a press briefing. “Our health system is already in crisis.”

Dubé said establishments such as bars, cinemas, concert venues, gyms and spas in the Canadian region will shut down starting at 5 p.m., CBC News reported.

Working from home is now mandatory for all non-essential employees, including government staffers.

Restaurants, which are allowed to operate at half capacity, must close by 10 p.m.

Meanwhile, sporting events will not be allowed to have spectators, officials said.

I’m ok with the Québécois locking themselves up. It means I’m less likely to have to experience any personal interface with them in Florida. It’s a positive development from my point of view.

Yes. That is the intention. Some people just want to burn everything down. Covid is just another excuse. Like all the psychos who joined Isis. They didn’t care about about Islam. It was just an excuse to rape and murder and destroy. Lockdown bureaucrats and politicians are the same. They just hide it better.
