Cheers:
Cheers to all workers at the Estevan Regional Nursing Home for keeping the residents healthy and safe. And for going above and beyond in keeping residents happy and in touch with their family members in so many different ways.
Cheers to the staff at St. Joseph’s Hospital for the touching tribute they made to healthcare workers in Nova Scotia. It might seem simple, but it meant a lot to those on the east coast.
Cheers to the start of fishing season. At times like this, we need activities that can serve as a distraction.
Cheers to Robert Godfrey for his Kuarantine Karaoke each week. It’s fun to watch and you can tell he’s a great entertainer. Any chance we can hear Hotel California?
Cheers to those who organized the tribute to Roger Huber last week, and to all of those who showed up to recognize a man who was such a big part of the oil industry and the community.
Jeers:
Jeers to those who still can’t grasp the concept of social distancing, be it inside or outside, or that we can’t have more than 10 people at a gathering at one time.
Jeers to these new restrictions on firearms the prime minister announced last week. The existing restrictions on assault-style weapons that have been in place since 1978 were sufficient. These new laws won’t make us safer.
Jeers to the motorists who refuse to use their signal lights, or who don’t signal well in advance. Just because there are fewer drivers on the road doesn’t mean you get to ignore the fundamental rules of the road. Be smart and respect the other drivers out there.
