Another Canadian here, planning on moving to Florida or Texas in the future. Severely disappointed and the "police can stop and question at random" by Doug Ford along with the curfew in Quebec is what's breaking the camel's back for me.
Main problem here is that instead of building temporary hospitals to boost the hospital capacity like US did last year, we have simply kept locking down which is equivalent to throwing the problem under a rug. It's been a year and even though they were talking about it last year, only as of couple weeks ago, they are planning on using temporary field hospital in the coming weeks. Why wasn't it used for a year to boost the capacity? Also the 2 temporary hospitals in Ontario have only 73 and 84 beds. That's tiny.

Then the whole nursing home debacle where the military audit showed reprehensible conditions and caused vast majority of the nursing home deaths:
