Also Trump tweeted the other day that Iran was preparing attack on U.S military in Iraq. Do the sanctions prevent other countries from offering humanitarian type aid ?

I find it odd how the US is offering aid, yet receiving aid themselves. Obviously it is different type of equipment/supplies but makes one wonder what sorts of things they were offering to Iran that they have to spare. I wouldn't think that US sanctions would stop Russia from sending Iran aid or medical supplies if they desired to do so Quote In another remarkable sign of the times, Russia on Wednesday delivered a planeload of medical equipment to the U.S. intended to aid the American government’s management of the outbreak.

Has the gall to argue his case. Should be able to confiscate his car too in my view. And Revenue Canada should follow up as well to see how much he's reported in earnings. In a time of crisis when people prey on the vulnerable and interrupt supply chains that could be used by professionals at risk trying to help others, I have zero tolerance for these lowlifes. The masks should all be donated to hospitals. Good work, bylaw officer! I worked with that man, he's a good fellow. Used to be VPD wayyyyyyyyy back in the day but he decided it wasn't for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, can't recall his name (not that I'd give it out anyway) but it was a few years ago that we worked together. The guy takes the job very seriously, but was a pleasure to work with as a colleague, very joyous man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The efforts really do pay off but it's a more the merrier thing. We can all buckle down for a month or so and really make a dent in this or have some floundering around, extending the timeline. I wish we could just slap people with a stick who aren't obeying the guidelines. I also worry that the numbers aren't realistic and that people who aren't being tested have it (but aren't sure so may not be as committed to the process). 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
