Has anyone windsurfed in the Beaufort Sea? I need to get 6mm wetsuit for sure.

That doesn't mean much. The Wuhan virus will be more deadly in the end. And the wet markets will not end very soon. Here are some details.

The real pandemic is panic.

It’s more contagious than covid-19.

It’s kind of hard not to panic when the only places I go to are shutting down like Whistler Blackcomb. What’s next the Spit? Can’t travel down to OR cuz of state of emergency and self quarantine when coming back home.

I don’t go to the mall. That they can shutdown
Shutdown Walmart too —all made in China. And the obvious too many people go there.

Waterways are not closed. I started seeing ads from the Yukon a few days ago.

Postpone travel or come home if Canada is your home.

PM talking of closing Canadian border:

Was considering of heading to the Vancouver Island for some sweet wave sailing but realized BC ferries is no different than cruise ships, so the potential of shutdown is not far fetched. They are monitoring the situation though.
