This week the new Omicron variant of COVID 19 has taken over the world. Closing borders once again, causing chaos and havoc for travelers and raising new levels of fear to people around the world. Canada has banned travel to 10 African countries, and many western nations are also adding their own strict border closures and travel bans to some of the poorest nations in the world, and I have to ask the question "would we close the borders if this was found in any other country?" and further to that why are Canadians still travelling when we have 7 cases identified here?

As world leaders scramble to decide what to do, the South African scientists have said that the variant doesn't appear to be very dangerous at all! But what are we supposed to do with this information and how are we supposed to move forward with other potential viral variants in the future?

As well this week Quebec syrup farmers have released a massive amount of maple syrup from reserves to meet global demand.
