We had the luxury of another week or two of summer in November that many people spend outdoors, which maybe slowed down the spread a bit. However now we've gone from 20c full sun last Wednesday to avg 5c with coming rain and potentially snow.

It leaves us with a difficult decision. Our kids very much enjoy seeing their grand parents in the weekend, as well as my brother-in-law's son. However he (our kid's nephew) is going to school while our kids do online schooling and my brother-in-law has a front facing job (with a lot of protection, but the risk is there) So far they stayed outside but that's no longer possible. The grand parents will be baby sitting the nephew which boils the choice down to, can our kids still go see them :/ It is their only 'escape' and it would really suck if they lose that as well. However what's the point keeping them home if they mix in the weekends.

It sucks this just keeps on going without any real effort to get where Australia and New Zealand are. Instead we get this:
"Ontario reported another record-breaking daily case count (1,581) and record additional deaths"
"Quebec reported a record 1,448 and 25 additional deaths"
"The province (Alberta) reported a record 1,026 cases today and three more deaths"
"Manitoba reported its highest number of new deaths at 15 and 239 more cases"
"Saskatchewan shattered its previous daily record and reported 308 new COVID-19 cases"
"B.C. did not provide new case information today"
(Still stubbornly not reporting in the weekend, also setting records every day now)
