| I was messaging my cousin this morning, she lives in France with her 2 boys and her husband. She was telling me that they have a 6pm curfew, masks MUST be worn at all times, and only 6 people are allowed in your home. I asked her what happens if you don't follow all those rules, she said they get a fine of $135 each time and also the fines go up if you are caught out after 6pm. I asked her about how do they know if you have more than 6 people in your own home and. she said they will do random checks and they've encouraged the neighbors to basically be a tattle tale. . watch and report your neighbors. IM FLOORED to learn this... she said all but just a few restaurants are closed and it's only take out available but you had better be home by 6pm. Geez, I thought it was bad here.... I honestly had no idea it was like that where she is... we don't get to talk very often. I was asking her about something I had read about going on in Italy, if she had heard anything. She told me it's really bad when where she is and neighbors are terrible, turning on each other. |

       Location: Not where I should be... | That is truly horrible. I cannot imagine the depression and stress of living like that. I thank God every day that I was blessed to be born in America. Yes, things here aren't good and our rights are being taken away day by day, but we are so blessed to not be "locked" in our homes like that. |

        Location: Kansas | In California and New York, it almost is that bad. One business after another is closing for good because of bad governing by Cuomo and Newsom. They are tyrants. One gym owner in New York tried desperately using all measure of sanitation to reopen his business. His exercise machines were all at least 6-10 feet apart and he was planning to limit the number of customers who could be there at one time. The City shut off his water and electricity. He bought a generator. They finally put padlocks on his doors and eventually arrested him. |

I can't help but wonder what could they really do if all the business's rose up and told them to shove it and opened up all at once ... what could "they" do? I read something on Facebook about businesses in Italy doing that against their government and actually got their way to stay open... if that's accurate or not, I don't know, that's what I was asking my cousin, if she had heard anything like that. My brother lives in Southern California and he said things were slowly starting to open back up. I know here in Central Texas, pretty much everything is open with the exception of a few restaurants offering take out only. The gyms are opened and operating normally with certain (loose) guidelines in place. We don't wear masks when we go out and I've not been hassled but 2 times about it, but that was in a different county than from where I live and that was in the beginning of this plandemic. |

I'm in NJ and a similar thing happened here. The gym owner ended up getting arrested. |

You know we might be talking about the same gym then and I got the wrong state. The owner appeared on FOX several times. I remember the name had Atlas in it. |

              Location: Under The Big Sky Of Texas | I bet its seems as bad to alot of people that were caught up in all these riots and lost their business because of these thugs and Covid..I dont think we will ever be out of the woods.. This Covid thing and riots are here to stay for a really long time. Now having a open border thanks to Biden and his masters things will get alot more serious, Covid is going to hit even harder when these people start crossing the border. Edited to add: I hope that your cousin and her family stays safe..

Since it will be a given that likely 25% of migrants crossing into the US will be infected, do you wonder if that's part of a sick plan to keep the population suppressed. Common sense tells you this virus came here by design, not by accident, and cost Trump the election.....China happy, Biden puppeteers happy. Who needs a healthy America. |

See, there you go using 'common sense' again! Laughing. Something the Politicans and The Left have absolutely no concept of. So, since 'they' have no concept of what common sense is, then it is BAD! LMAO |

Here was an eye-opener FH. Gordon Chang speaking about the dangers of a bolder China with a Biden administration. Chang said a very real possibility in the future could be a virus that the Chinese population have been immunized against spread around the world. Hence dominance worldwide. |

     Location: where the wind blows | Canada is almost as bad. Varies a bit by province. Manitoba east has been locked down for months, nothing open only essential purchases which the government decides what is essential. Things like winter clothing and blankets are apparently not essential. Alberta was pretty locked down with restaurants, gyms, schools etc. There was a big push back last week with some restaurants defying the orders and opening up so the premier caved and has started a slow phase in to open restaurants at limited capacity. We aren't super bad here in Saskatchewan compared to both neighbors but we are limited to 6 in a house and no one in your house unless they live there. And yes it has been encouraged by government to rat on your neighbor and our fines are $2500. So thankful I live in the boonies and all our neighbors we have known forever, we are all century family farms here so no worries here that anyone will report anyone. We are still allowed to have barrel races but with tight regulations. Alberta and Manitoba are not. As well our idiot sock boy Trudeau implemented very strict regulations for people coming home from other countries. If you have the wrong pcr negative covid test when you land you are taken against your will to an undisclosed facility and held there until a negative pcr test and you pay $2000 for your stay and test. We are living in communism here and sadly the amount of people that think it's great the government is controlling them to protect them from this bloody virus is scarier than the dam government. I hate to scare you but Biden is another socialist loving Trudeau in older skin. Look out. What boggles my mind is how we have conservative premiers in most of these provinces and they are bowing to every command Trudeau makes. I have friends whose kids just came home from Florida, they are wearing ankle brackets to be monitored to make sure they do not leave their house for 2 weeks while they quarantine. Mexico is looking better all the time. Manitoba just banned inter provincial travel meaning you go into Manitoba or leave and go back you have to quarantine two weeks. My son is wanting to go look at bulls in Manitoba for a new herd bull so not sure with agriculture being an essential service if he will be allowed in to do that. Pray people. Only our Lord and Saviour can fix the mess our world is in. ?? |

| Our rope horse trainer has a brother that lives in Canada... he said all the same things stated above... Said it's something awful. He said anyone who thinks socialism is a grand idea, send them his # and he will tell you all about it. I'm not sure what's going to happen here, but I'm worried. And I feel like majority of people aren't aware of what's really going on. Kind of like the frog in the pot deal... turn up the heat slowly and the dumb frog won't try to jump out and will boil to death. |

     Location: where the wind blows | Along with anyone that thinks socialism is the friggen answer. I have a great neice living in Edmonton I had to block and unfollow her on social media, she is late 20's union loving nurse who thinks socialism is THE ANSWER. And don't even get me started on her views on agriculture (because she has spent so much time on an actual farm you know). I invited her to come visit and ACTUALLY SEE WHERE BEEF IS RAISED AND HOW. YEAH she hasn't come to visit yet. Her and all those like her need to go visit china or venuzuela or similar and experience it for a bit. Although Canada is headed that road very soon I fear. I had hope for North America if Trump had maintained power. I won't say he lost becuase, well I don't think he did. But with Biden in now, North America is going down faster than the titanic I'm afraid. To be 100% honest if our sons weren't wanting to take over this century family farm I'd be convincing my husband to sell out fast and I'd think I'd head to Mexico. Pretty sure we could live pretty comfortable on our farm sale down there and not deal with the road Trudeau is taking down Canada. And now we get to watch our southern neighbours go down with us. Scary, scary times ahead. |

No Kidding!!! What about all those actors that were saying how they were going to leave the States and going to move to a different country when we had a Republican President coming into office! They sure didnt move now did they?!!!! Because they knew America is #1 and moving to a different county would have set them back and they would not have it as good in a different county as they got it here in America. But now that we have the Puppet that they wanted in Office ( Biden) things that made America great is changing under this Clown and not for the good but for the worst. |
