What I found most interesting though.. is that many of those
strangers were not wearing masks. I did not mind that myself;
legally I cannot extricate/remove someone if they choose to not
wear a mask, and still want to browse or purchase something.
But it is interesting that most people are treating this "day
1" as a kind of "covid days are over" thing and there is a
general sense of freedom regained.

Hello All,
Today marked "day 1" of the beginning of the lifting of the
"stay at home" order in Ontario. Being in a tourist town that
serves as a gateway to cottage destinations, *and* being a
Friday, my town was jam-packed with vehicles pouring through
all day.
masks my personal conclusion is the masks are nothing more than a safety blanket for people. As I drive around I still see people wearing them in there cars while there alone and wearing them while they sit on a park
And sometimes I wear a mask alone in a car, normally
because it's less of a hassle to keep it on than to put it
back on five minutes later.
I'm sorry.. but a person all alone in their car, and wearing a mask looks really dumb. How complex is your mask? Mine just has two
loops for each ear; easy. Two loops is a hassle? :O

When COVID first started up I was running with a Twin Cart
P2 respirator.. that is a real hassle, I tend to be
allergic to paper masks though. Two loops or a complete
mask, most things either become a hassle, or common enough
that you don't think about it any more. On/Off can be
irritating depending on circumstances, sometimes just
easier to leave sleeping dogs as they say :)
