1/ Ford is sitting on billions, not sure how much. Now the ONLY to get this approaching under control is to go back to hard Stage 1 from Windsor to north of Orillia.
Businesses that were closed in that stage must be closed again and compensated, as well as their employees.

2/ We need numbers way, way down to successfully do our vaccination plan. Dougie's half-assed pandemic expansion plan has been a marvellous success but now it's time for you and everyone else to finally take this seriously.
3/ You can't please everyone Doug so settle on keeping the most possible amount of people alive and healthy.
You moan about SBOs but you're hurting them. Allowing them to stay open, when smart people are avoiding them, means business is down but they still have to pay employees

4/ even while revenue has plummetted. These employees are exposed daily to people who don't wear a mask properly, and with a greater likelihood as the days of inaction stretch out, have been exposed to COVID or are infected already.
5/ So not only are you affecting SBO's ability to earn a living and stay open, you are potentially affecting their health and sending cases into the community. Since the virus likes you, Doug, it's also doing you a favour and sending cases into the stores and businesses from
6/ the community. So nobody's making money and it's a driver of the out of control community spread almost everywhere in the province we call home.
So you have screwed the economy up, allowed people to get ill and you have permitted people to die that didn't need to.

7/ That's a heavy burden and it should be. Ultimately you call the shots so you and you alone are responsible for this by your abysmal handling of the crisis.
And ultimately only you can put it right. The vaccine is but a small part of the plan we need to get out of this

8/ so stop thinking of it as a magic bullet, it's not and it's not a panacea, so get that thought that's rolling around your head out of there.
So for once, you have to be a leader. Monday announce Stage 1 for the areas I mentioned, compensate the businesses

9/ that have to close, make sure the employees will be paid and shut things down tightly. 28 days will make a difference but probably will not be enough with the damage already in motion. If you don't understand what ramifications 2000+ case days will have on hospitals, ICUs
10/ and ultimately morgues over the next few weeks ask Doc Fog. If he doesn't understand call one of the "armchair quarterbacks" who have been right all along and they will be MORE than happy to help.
11/ You are sitting on billions from the feds and now you are going to finally put it to good use.
This is "your only" way out. I'd suggest starting Monday's speech with:
"Folks we have made mistakes but that stops today and right now".
