    One trip per week. One person per household. That should be the law for grocery buying, union says

    -Western Canada's largest private-sector union is proposing that people be limited to one trip to the grocery store each week to prevent the spread of COVID-19 among customers and workers.

    Tom Hesse, president of the United Food and Commercial Workers 401, which represents 32,000 workers, said governments should also bring in regulations that allow only one person per family in a store at a time.

    "We're going to ask for clear rules that are enforceable with fines in a regulatory regime. The fact of the matter is we can't let these places become nursing homes and it's just a free-for-all in these grocery stores right now," Hesse told The Canadian Press.

    The union suggests loyalty programs and membership cards could be used to track visits and peace officers may be needed to enforce the regulations...

    Does that part remind anyone else of Revelation 13:17?

    And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark

    Canada's death toll was 207 yesterday or almost 6/million/day and it's rising. So there is reason for concern. There seems to be a tendency for countries of a large geographical area where people moved freely during early infection to get up into high numbers eventually. Canada, US, Mexico, Brazil, the European Union (which is mostly Western continental Europe).
