Toronto has no leadership...toilet paper is the proof

[jimmylikes]

When it gets to the point you cant find toilet paper, you know the city has gone to shit, literally...

put some fucking bans and limits on how much toilet paper one person can buy....

show some fucking leadership, Toronto and Ontario politicians.....

Agree 1000% - got into a argument with a guy last night that had 12 packages of toilet paper in his cart.

exactly ....how is this being allowed? Im single so I order on amazon and dont need much , but im seeing mothers trying to shop for their whole family and they
cant get a fucking roll....

it just proves how brutally greedy and selfish this city and society has become .....

Tory should have demanded the stores put a stop to this a week ago....

Costco was limiting one per customer from what I heard.

Three max for no frills as well I heard.

I already had a full in opened Costco size supply. We are not even half a second one. Have an just freshly opened Costco size paper towel.

I looked at what I could stockpile for this and found I already have enough for a month for 3 people at least. Being a homeless pregnant teen when I was younger, has made me always stockpile. I shop a month in advance all the time.

I disagree with the notion that are going to blame anyone and it should be to the hustlers who take advantage of the situation. this one couple literally bought up all the lysol wipes in Vancouver and made 100k. https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/2020/03/12/were-hustlers-amid-coronavirus-fears-this-couple-has-made-more-than-100000-reselling-lysol-wipes.html. this is nothing new as most often during any kind of crisis that everyone rushes and hoards items such as personal hygiene and food.

There are fairly simple solutions for not using toilet paper which humans have made due with (and in many parts of the world continue) without TP.

The leadership we need is setting up fever clinics, closing non-essential administrative offices or by appointment only. Ensuring medieval professionals have sufficient quality child care. Closing schools was a good start. Ensuring grocery stores, and distribution centres have support to make sure we don’t see bare shelves.

This is herd mentality and nothing else.

My grandma said back in the day they would sometimes have to use cloths and wash them. When the leaves start coming you can pretend you're camping. lol. It's great if you have a bidet.

The politicians should do exactly nothing. If they bring in government mandated rationing, there will be a full blown panic buying of EVERYTHING that will turn to black market resales. I've seen this happen with my own eyes. It's best for the individual stores to regulate this.

 

[Nathan 88]

The people who are stocking up on toilet paper are complete morons!
I’ve seen them in the store,I’ve heard them talking to each other and it’s stupid people like that who help to create a panic in society.

Not in all case. There is a story about some asshole buying up lysole wipes and reselling them on amazon. They should report this guy to CRA so that they can tax the shit out of him. https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/2020/03/12/were-hustlers-amid-coronavirus-fears-this-couple-has-made-more-than-100000-reselling-lysol-wipes.html

This is entirely normal. If they start rationing, you'll only be able to get the basics on line from the speculators. The uniform message from all levels of government and the retailers should be "there's no shortage".

can someone enlighten me as to why the focus of this outbreak is on toilet paper?

Because there was a news story last week in America about it. People, as a group, are basically idiots who feed off each other's ignorance. Hence, a run on non essentials.

 

[Mr Deeds]

The notion that Toronto has no leadership because there's a run on toilet paper is absolutely ridiculous.

 

[lomotil]

Canadians are coddled to the point of stupidy in this nanny state. Are some suggesting that the government should control sales of ass wipe too. I am sure the government is busy with more pressing issues at this time.

 

[smallhatchet]

I seem lost because I havent heard that one of the symptoms is shitting your brains out? I guess I missed that point.

It stuns me as to why people havent stocked up on things that will actually help you fight the virus like vitamins, soft ply kleenix, soup, orange juice.....etc

As people stocked their carts full of TP, I bought some easy to prepare foods cause nobody feels like cooking when their feeling, hehe, shitty, and some vitamins and minerals.

Everything else I have from the start of the cold/flu season already.

I havent gotten sick yet this year and plan on not getting infected with this cold virus either!
