Any wish for pro sports to resume this year’s season isn’t at all realistic. I say mid-September training camp is the earliest we see live hockey. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Toronto did this as well... but I wonder if a game can be classified as an "event" if nobody is permitted to attend. It is all probably moot because I don't expect hockey to be back. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Germans and French cut off ventilator shipments to Italy weeks ago. You can imagine the rage if JT shipped a bunch of ventilators to China. Just demonstrates that countries will take care of their own when required. except we had a negotiated deal to support each other. But Trump doesn't care about that kind of thing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canada Hockey Place Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 3M's response to Trump's order to stop selling mask to Canada and Latin America. The company, which calls itself a critical supplier of the masks around the world, says there would be "significant humanitarian implications" to acceding to the U.S. demand to limit exports to Canada and Latin America. "In addition, ceasing all export of respirators produced in the United States would likely cause other countries to retaliate and do the same, as some have already done," 3M said in a statement Friday. "If that were to occur, the net number of respirators being made available to the United States would actually decrease. That is the opposite of what we and the administration, on behalf of the American people, both seek." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said people will take care of their own first. we were supposed to be in that category. I could certainly see this being the end of the EU, I mean why bother with it if its every one for themselves when the $&!# hits the fan? But the bright side of all this is hopefully it injects stimulus spending into our medical device manufacturing sector. And many others too. We have all the skills and tools to be self-sufficient in these things, just haven't had the political will to invest in them. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capitalism the way it was intended is a great system. Capitalism with the taxpayer as a backstop is complete and utter bullsh**. Capitalism says the price you pay for bad decision making is ultimately bankruptcy. If you remove that from the equation you create a situation of "heads I win, tails you lose". Then there is no deterrent to unbridled greed. Nothing to keep it in check. When it is allowed to run wild it is an ugly thing indeed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
