Today, I chat with Asad Faruqi. He moved from Pakistan right when the lockdown started, and, unfortunately, he hasn't lived in the city outside of the pandemic.

He also gives some good advice to newcomers who are moving to Canada during the current situation, especially on building your network at this time.
