COVID-19: Montreal Councillor proposes mandatory face masks on public transit M ontreal Councillor Marvin Rotrand wants to make it

By Deborah Rankin mtltimes.ca

mandatory for public transit users to wear a face mask "at least for the foreseeable future".

He says compulsory face coverings are necessary to bolster confidence in public transportation in the wake of COVID-19.The Snowdon district councilor says that the public transit system is on the brink of collapse and there will have to be an infusion of cash to keep it afloat until ridership returns to near normal levels. This is coming at a time when Quebec is preparing to gradually lift restrictions on public gatherings. As commuters begin to return to work and school in the next few weeks the

question on everyone's mind is, "What will the "new normal" be?"

I think the federal government has a role to play in all this," Rotrand says. The veteran city councilor - who last week asked for urgent federal funding to stabilize transit - notes that since April 20th Canada has obliged air travelers to wear masks. He wonders if public transit as we know it is even going to survive. "People have gotten used to working at home - a lot of people have discovered how easy it is to shop online," he says.

These facts in and of themselves are likely to depress ridership. Then there is the "fear factor". He believes that public transportation won't get rolling again without a mandatory law. "Many people are afraid of being in a confined space" {without PPE}. He notes that cities as diverse as Mexico City, Singapore, San Francisco, Shanghai, Buenos Aires, Taipei, Tel Aviv, Honolulu, and Istanbul have made wearing a mask compulsory in order to boost ridership.

Should face masks on public transit be mandatory?

has been hit hard by the virus, she said that because the city is so densely populated, it might be difficult to stay two metres away from others.

Plante's recommendation to wear a mask all summer is enough to make many a free spirit balk even without the spectre of a law.The science on COVID-19 is evolving and epidemiologists don't agree on best practices. Some countries have sustained a devastating loss of human life while others have had comparatively few deaths.

Different jurisdictions have deployed different strategies to stem the transmission of the virus. Canada's public health authorities have adopted a broad approach favoring social distancing and, inexplicably, self-isolation when there is no requirement for quarantine. Over the last 6 weeks there have been wildly different projections about the expected number of cases and fatalities. continued on Page 8

Quebec to progressively reopen schools starting on May 11th elementary school teachers (although that can change). Parents who decide not to send their children to daycares will not lose their spots, nor will they have to pay for days when children do not attend.

Sanitary protocols will be strictly followed in the schools, such as washing hands with soap and water frequently, for both students and teachers and the school rooms and other common areas will be cleaned

Quebec Education Minister Jean-François Roberge

By Bonnie Wurst mtltimes.ca nounced at a press conference on April 27th that Elementary schools and Daycare centers will progressively and 'prudently' reopen starting on May 11th. He reiterated several times that attendance will not be mandatory and parents who have concerns may choose not to send their children back to school. The reopenings will start on May 11th in most of the province, but only in areas considered 'cold zones'.

Whereas Montreal and areas north and south of the Island, consid-

ered 'hot zones' because of the higher number of cases of the Covid-19 virus, will reopen starting on May 19th. High Schools, Cegeps and Universities will remain closed until September 1st.

The Minister said they are announcing the plans two and three weeks in advance to give parents time to better prepare themselves and their children, as well as to allow the government to work out some details.

Parents who choose to send their children to school, must advise schools a week in advance if they are going to attend. It especially goes for elementary school children, as the number of students per classroom will be limited to 15 students, in order to maintain the 2-metre physical distancing measures.

Should there be a higher number, the government will look into other spaces such as in Cegeps and Universities that have been closed.

As well, if there are not

enough teachers available they will consider bringing in University and High school teachers. Teachers who are 60 years or older will not be back going back for now and parents with health risks are advised not to send their children back to school.

The edict goes for teachers as well.

Daycare center workers will have to wear masks, as it will be extremely difficult to maintain the distancing measures - but it will not be mandatory for

in terms of their development or for students with learning difficulties - is to keep kids cooped up without their teachers until the fall… the watchword here is prudence." He maintained that despite the comments he made last week about opening schools could help 'herd immunization', that the 'issue was not in the equation because there is no scientific consensus on the matter.'

By Bonnie Wurst mtltimes.ca Under the previous Liberal government, Bill 10 'An Act to modify the organization and governance of the health and social services network, in particular by abolishing the regional agencies' was passed in the National Assembly in February of 2015. Since then, the health system has still faced serious problems. During Quebec's 2018 provincial election campaign, the CAQ's Francois Legault promised to address the issues. Due to the perceived failures of the

Liberal government, the CAQ won with an overwhelming majority of seats and expectations were high for them to fulfill their promises.

Unfortunately, the health system has not really improved at all since they came into power.

And today, with the challenges of the Covid19 pandemic, it is clear the provincial health system in serious crisis.

Due to a recent governmental decree, the West-Central Montreal regional health authority announced that nonmedical health workers, which include speech language pathologists, occupational therapists, social workers, dieticians and physiotherapists, are being redeployed to longterm care facilities.

There is no question that help is needed. In fact, with the revelations of what has been happening in the senior residences, it is at a catastrophic level with not enough health workers to fill the demand

needed. The CAQ has acknowledged their failure in this area and last week, Premier Francois Legault put out an urgent appeal to doctors and medical specialists for their help. Close to 2,000 workers in the CHSLDs have not being showing up to work and it is speculated the reason is that many of them fear contracting the Covid-19 virus.

Instead, the government is using the decree they adopted last month that allows the health authority to mandatorily redeploy staff to CHSLDs where needed. Any vacations are cancelled, part-time staff are being forced to work full-time and all unpaid leave is stopped - and the transfers are mandatory or employees risk losing their job if they refuse to work.

Why is the government not forcing the 'missing' CHSLD workers back to their jobs instead?

Why are they not being asked to provide their reasons for not show-

ing up? They are the health care workers with the professional experience for the tasks at hand. Many of the non-medical workers have absolutely no experience in this field and they are being asked to change diapers, wash residents, feed them, transfer from a bed to a wheelchair among other things.

PAB's (Préposée Aux Bénéficiaires - Patient Attendants) have special training for this, not speech therapists. Yes, they are being given a two-hour training session - a video showing them how wear a mask, a gown and a face shield.Two women who attended a session found the 'woefully inadequate' according to a CBC report. There were concerns about the type of protective gear they will be given.

And the nurses who gave the training said they 'didn’t have enough personal protection equipment for them to practice during the

training session'. Some of those attending ended up in tears. However, the government believes the training is sufficient, as the employees are being assigned to assist orderlies.

Given the government's track record to date, it gives cause for concern. More disconcerting is the government forcing these people, making it mandatory for them to accept the redeployment - under threat of losing their jobs. Many of these non-medical workers have children at home or elderly parents. Others have compromised immune systems. What about the stress and anxiety it can cause? The word 'dictatorship' has been circulating on social media about the way this is being handled. Is forcing these workers to do these things, to travel to other regions or even do night shifts, right? Or is it completely unfair?

However, the data now shows that 79% of COVID-19 deaths in Canada have occurred in chronic care facilities and senior residences suggesting that a more targeted approach is necessary. It is doubtful that mandatory measures such as wearing a face mask in public would meet the test of civil liberties in the current context. It is also highly debatable whether people would accept this additional barrier to communication and the enjoyment of their walks and bike rides when parks and pools may stay closed for several months and vacation becomes moot. A recent opinion poll conducted by Leger and the Association for Canadian Studies shows that

Canadians are split over whether a vaccine for COVID-19 should be mandatory - presuming one becomes available an indication that lots of people aren't on board with hyper-vigilance, especially young adults.

Rotrand is also calling for a national safety standard that could be proposed to the provinces and transport agencies to boost ridership on buses and the metro. This new framework would include the obligatory use of masks, a federal fund to enable transit authorities to distribute masks for free to riders, the provision of hand sanitizing products, and a uniform cleaning standard outlining how often and by what means transit vehicles are cleaned.

The Société de transport de Montréal (STM) says it is working with the City of Montreal to install 224 hand-sanitizing stations in the Métro. The touchless dispensers will be distributed at each of the system's 126 entrance buildings, as well as at 50 publicaccess points. The public transport agency says the dispensers will be cleaned daily and refilled regularly but, cautions, "This is an additional preventive measure that does not replace existing public health rules, including physical distancing, coughing into the elbow and frequent hand washing.” People who may have been infected with COVID-19 are urged to stay away from the public transit system.

They heard that Canadian Military troops were being deployed in Quebec and wanted to help them too. Schiefke was not sure at the time about when and where they would be sent, but would call them when he knew. In the meantime, he sug-

Next week they will be delivering Specials to the Lakeshore General Hospital. Each Special

difficult for seniors and people with compromised immune systems.

Beside from it being hard for many of them to navigate the websites, the stores are overwhelmed with the increase of online orders. People have been finding themselves waiting for several days and more to receive their goods - and they are unable to wait that long.

Going to the stores and shopping for themselves is out of the question. However, people like Maya Astrologo, who has an Instagram account @MtlFoodie (about 'food, drink, recipes, restaurants and other important stuff') decided to do something about it. She wanted to reach out and help get food to these people - and 'MTL Foodie Runs' was born. Along with a group of volunteers that are located in dif• May 2, 2020

these orders for people who really need it," she explains.

HOW DOES IT WORK? "Simply put, people send us their grocery list, and we will shop and deliver their items to them for a small charge of $5 (to cover the fuel costs for our volunteers). To begin, they can go on our website (see link below) and click on 'Order a Delivery'.They fill out the entire form, which includes their information, their chosen grocery store, and their grocery list items. Once we receive their request, we will call, text or email them to confirm the request. We will then find a volunteer who can pick up and deliver the items.

We will pay for the groceries, and ask for a reimbursement after the purchase. The receipt will be sent to the indi-

charged about 3% by PayPal, so any extra payment to help cover those costs would be appreciated. They can also 'carefully' accept cash at the door, but do not carry change).

ARE THERE RESTRICTIONS OF WHAT PEOPLE CAN PUT ON THEIR LISTS? "We ask that people only order necessities and limit their grocery

list to 15 items.We also ask that people try to be specific, such as mentioning brands or quantities when necessary."

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE? "We will work as quickly as we can to get your order in a timely matter, aiming to deliver them within 24 hours.

However, we are limited by the number of volunteers available."

OUR MISSION "To support the Montreal community and make a meaningful contribution during these difficult times." No matter the amount of deliveries we will make, we will have still made a difference - Maya Astrologo, Founder.

AJOI - Homeless in West Island now have access to chemical toilets ction Jeunesse de l'Ouest-del'île (AJOI) is an organization

A

By Bonnie Wurst mtltimes.ca

that helps young adults ages 18 to 35 in need of assistance in the West Island. Although the area is considered to have good living conditions, there was estimated to be over 17,500 youth and homeless people living in 'social and material deprivation' according to AJOI in February of 2019. With the challenges of the Covid-19 pandemic and people in isolation, it has become an even harsher reality for them. One of the issues they are facing is access to sanitation facilities - and AJOI decided to do something about it. In a Press Release, they announced that after a three-week struggle,

they finally got confirmation on April 28th that chemical toilets will be installed in the West Island. The news comes after they denounced the lack of sanitation facilities for homeless people in the area. While chemical toilets with sinks had been installed downtown and in outlying areas like Lachine and Hochelaga, the West Island was 'slow to obtain the same services'.

In recent weeks, AJOI has seen an increase in the volume of calls concerning the problem of homelessness.

They have not been able to refer them to resources outside Montreal (because of restrictions related to social and health regionalization). During this time, there has been a 'general worsening of living conditions for people in a situation of visible and invisible homelessness: makeshift camps, living

in sheds and solariums, no access to bathrooms' and more.They identified five places where the situation had become so problematic that they could be described as 'open toilets'. But thanks to the joint work of AJOI, the Réseau d’aide aux personnes seules et itinérantes à Montréal (RAPSIM), the CIUSSS de l'Ouest-de-l'Île, Benoit Langevin, City councilor in Pierrefonds-Roxboro and Spokesperson in the shadow cabinet for Homelessness and youth, and the City of Montreal - people experiencing homelessness in the West Island will now have access to chemical toilets with washbasins. As they state in their release, they consider it 'a minimum in this time of pandemic where, let’s remember, not everyone fights on equal terms against an invisible enemy'.

Soothe the Skin in Covid Times ovid Hands. Dry, raw, red, cracked, sometimes bleeding.

C

By Martha Shannon mtltimes.ca

Many people suffering terribly. Sanitizing with alcohol based cleansers and or wearing gloves for hours on end are heroic deeds executed by heroes.

I received this testimonial from Danette. I do not know where she lives. I do not know what job it is that requires her husband to wear gloves all day long.

Perhaps he is a postal worker, a technician, a doctor or a cashier. Perhaps he is a caregiver, a firefighter, an orderly, a food worker, a bus driver, or other frontline job. Any one of you who masks up, wears gloves and other protective gear will be in need of some soothing comforts when you return home. Hopefully on your down time you can comfort your hands.

Danette wrote: “Because of Covid my husband has to wear gloves

• May 2, 2020

at work and they were bothering his skin. Making his hands itch and get sore. I suggested he try the zinc cream on his hands. It worked!!

He never forgets to put it on now and has since shared it with people he works with.”

Thank you, Danette, for reminding us how extraordinary zinc can

be. This essential mineral is not produced by the body on its own.

Most commercial zincs do contain formaldehyde (usually hidden and not apparent on the label). While the zinc itself is good, the latter, while a preservative, may cause further hand angst. If you like the idea of zinc to

soothe covid hands, I do suggest you find one free of any added chemicals.

Besides ours, there are also DIY recipes online Soap, as you know, is a major factor in skin care. We have good advice on soap choices.

Choose Your Soap wisely. Are Your Hands Taking a Hit? Soap or

www.mtltimes.ca

Detergent? Liquid or Bar? Use a real soap when you can and then apply a healthy chemical free product. Earth to Body products include our X Cream, Moisturizing Lotion, Sheamu or Shargan butter.

Mask wearers are also suffering similar symptoms on the face. Red-

ness, itchiness, dryness.

Our zinc blend can successfully be applied to the face too. We also suggest the pure unrefined emu oil, as often as needed. As businesses reopen, people will, out of respect for others, and themselves, wear masks. For many it will be for a short period, an in and out scenario. But if you are worker on the frontline, you may have to wear one for your entire shift.

Until May 3rd,2020, we have a special on soaps and gift packages for Mother’s Day. Please join our newsletter for notice of specials. Shop online or call us. Be safe and well.

Four affordable wines for pandemic wines

t has been a few tors play into my decimonths since I sion bought wine at my I could understand local SAQ. I mostly that not everyone has a generous wine budget like myself or simply doesn't desire to spend $50 on a bottle of wine.

Personally, I overindulge when it's not the most appropriate especially during these pandemic times.

Now, Where to find amazing wine?. Which countries?. Portugal and

resent good value because the quality-toprice ratio is high.There are a lot of wineries in Portugal producing very good wines at every price range.

Roussillon is a district in the region of Languedoc-Roussillon and is located between Spain, the Mediterranean, the Pyrenees and the Corbières Mountains and Roussillon is particularly known for its beautiful, red cliffs.

Roussillon has a variety of wines and different types of soil. It almost seems that every grape has its own type of soil and there are 24 approved grapes in Roussillon.

With its characteristic patchwork of various terroirs like for instance

red and black clay, sandstone, gravel or granite, Roussillon offers a wide range of wines with very distinctive properties. The varying structure of the region as well as the warm microclimate in the region gives a unique character

SAQ # 10841161 $12.00 12$ will buy you a lot of wine. Lots of ripe blackberry fruit with spicy undertones and soft licorice nuances. On the palate, it is gutsy and rustic but well with a good tannic backbone.

Medium length finale.

Enjoy this red with some pasta in a rich meat sauce.

Domaine Ferrer-Ribière F Côtes Catalanes rose 2018 SAQ # 12924711 $18.50 A powerful rose from the Roussillon that evokes sweet notes of red plums with autumn leaves and cherry kirsch.

Enjoy it with grilled chicken breast med style.

I

f you are a buyer and just found your perfect home at the right price, the next

By Eleni Akrivos mtltimes.ca

logical and crucial step is the home inspection.

Are you ready? As a seller, you may be excited to have an agreed upon offer to purchase, yet to move forward with the transaction, your home has to pass the inspection. What will the inspector find?

Most buyers and even sellers, now see the value of home inspections. Although tedious, if used for what they’re intended, home inspections can save both sides of a real estate deal many headaches down the road.

There are many parties involved during and after the inspections, and it helps when everyone has a “realistic” approach to the entire process. It also helps, when everyone acts in “good faith”, and does not use the home inspection as a pretext to a definite price reduction.

What inspections offer: A professional opinion and report on the overall condition of the home including everything that is visible and accessible.

What inspections do not offer: An exhaustive expert report on every system in the home, whether accessible or hidden.

So who is

Home Inspection advice for buyers and sellers

responsible for what during and after the inspection process?

For Buyers: Inspections should reassure you that your new home is safe, functional and not going to become a “money pit”.

- Be vigilant and do your homework by reviewing the Sellers Declaration with your broker.

- Ask any pertinent questions about the home prior to the inspection.

- Get ready to block out at least 2 to 3 hours

on inspection day, depending on size of home.

- Take your time and review any concerns with inspector and brokers.

The Buyer’s Broker: Attending inspections is a must, and good brokers will be right by your side during the process.

- They should have a good basic knowledge by knowing what is important in the big picture, yet not pretend to know the job of the inspector.

- If you’re getting a very fair price on the home, your broker will

likely advise you not to bother the Seller for small repairs.

- If the inspection reveals major or serious flaws in the home, your broker can advise you on how to proceed.

The Seller: Inspections are part of the process, and if you can be present during the inspection to answer any questions, things may go smoother than you think.

- You can choose to have a PRE-SALE inspection before selling - Make certain necessary repairs prior to

selling - Offer the home at a reasonable price taking into consideration imminent repairs needed (roof, windows etc..)

The Sellers Broker: May also be present at the inspection report, as the eyes and ears for the sellers.

- Is very familiar with the property and can handle questions that come up - Will need to be ready to manage any unknowns or surprises that may arise.

- Although this broker represents the Seller,

their main purpose is to collaborate with all parties for a smooth transaction The Inspector: A good inspector will provide explanations and point out things that need to be addressed and will not be an alarmist but will remain impartial.

- In Quebec, your realtor can recommend a list of licensed inspectors who qualify with certain criteria.

- Should definitely be chosen wisely, maybe through a referral.

- Their main purpose is to inspect the home and provide you with real time knowledge, as well as a detailed report afterwards.

It’s important to note, that having a family member with “construction experience”, or a friend who is a contractor be present during inspections, may be well intended but could lead to unnecessary negative consequences, as these individuals are not licensed property inspectors.

Most inspections go smoothly, but some can also be the beginning of tough negotiations ahead. Make sure that you try to stay reasonable and work together with all parties of the transaction and come up with solutions that make everyone feel confident about moving forward.
