Here is my take on the pandemic, " your going to die" because stupid people don't isolate, Aircraft passengers are the greatest spreaders of the virus, Do you remember what happened to the Dinosaurs, Do you see any of them on the streets of your town.

They got schmucked by a space rock.

They didn't see it coming. We did.

I really don’t care what you think.

Given the current situation in Iqaluit, I'm amazed that the GN as well as GNWT aren't demanding that all aircrews be vaccinated.

This all comes down to who whines the loudest. Teachers fought for front of the line now most of them are working from home in Ontario. What a waste that was. The only people I know who are vaccinated are people who are either retired or able to work from home.

If flight attendants and pilots put up a stink about getting to the front of the line, the general public would dismiss this idea and remind us that flights should actually be grounded, we should all stay at home until they declare the end to this and they may then give us permission to crawl out of our cave and fly again. No way non essential flight crew should be getting vaccinated yet in the eyes of the general population.

Simple enough fix; the Nunavut, Yukon and NWT governments should provide the doses to the pilots. After all, pilots are essential to fly in communities.
