I liked it a lot when I looked at it on Thursday, March 12, but I had no idea then how prescient it might be.
Schools closed in Quebec the next day, and ever since things have been becoming more and more restrictive--thank goodness.
When out this morning for a walk (okay if you stay 2 metres from anyone, and at 8 a.m. there were few people out), I saw notices on every place of worship I passed, announcing closures until further notice. That was only most recent of the measures that have been put into effect. Physical distance and social solidarity is the order of the day.
Perhaps a few months from now we'll look back and sigh: yes, it was necessary, and yes, we have a lot of work to do to bring things back to life. But, hopefully, we will still be here...
