The real numbers are the hospitalizations and ICU admissions, which are still rising. Yup. The Ontario government is restricting testing as well as changing the way the numbers are collected and reported. Whether that is incompetence or ideology it sounds like a familiar and classic move that plays/rigs the numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live on the Lake Ontario waterfront and weirdly there are boat tours going on in winter. Really they are boat parties - I guess the indoor areas are heated.

A lot of cruisers are rented for end of year/xmas parties. They are floating halls of various sizes. CanadaFan123 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EJsens1 Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 3 weeks to the day for this game. We still thinking there will be fans? What should be the cut off point to inform the public? nfitz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamboAl Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Air Canada cancelled my flight to Toronto and offered me a refund or a change. I took the refund and have not rebooked another flight. That’s how little I expect to be there and I’ve been to the last 7 home games in Canada. But if the game is a go, I’ll get a last minute plane or train down.

I need to decide soon whether or not to cancel my airfare to get some money back or keep the ti keys in the slim hope that it will happen. Have been in touch with flair and I suspect I will make a decision to cancel within the next day or two. Seems extremely unlikely that this will happen with my family of 4 in the stands.

I don't think there will be an official word for a while. CMNT will want fans there and will wait for the government to announce the next set of restrictions.

Fortunately, my itinerary has changed involuntarily, so I can request a full refund for my airfare. If you don't mind me asking, what do you plan on doing with your match tickets if you decide to cancel the airfare? I'm not sure if I should sell or hold mine in case the game is postponed.

I'm not sure if I should sell or hold mine in case the game is postponed. I am not even sure how many I will have (if a limited number of fans are allowed in). I currently have a block of 4 but if they do some sort of lottery I don’t know if they would identify single tickets tartare still valid or purchase-lots that were bought together. Depending on how that turns out I could theoretically still try to get to Toronto. DeRo_Is_King 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I didn’t cancel voluntarily and still hope to be there but if I had to put place a wager, it would be on a no go. I checked with WestJet, Air Canada and Porter; can now only get a credit (have enough of them) and the case of Porter, non refundable unless I pay an “insurance” amount that is as much as the standard airfare. dyslexic nam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can't do that anymore. Before I could when we dealt directly with Canada Soccer and not TM. Best we can do is ban people from the group. Which will matter more as we change how tickets are bought.

Interesting, just curious, why the change from directly dealing with the CSA to having to go through TM? So TM is not willing to cancel tickets I assume?

I do not think that the Dougler will close anything totally. It's an election year. The only reason that the raps and the leafs have no fans is because they decided as an org to close to fans. The biggest issue is that the players might be sick and not play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
