To retard the spread of the novel coronavirus, most Guelphites, Ontarians and Canadians are mostly with the face mask program now. But I am still bitter by the reception of my March 5, 2020 letter “Shocked not to see people wearing masks.” At the time, online commenters in Guelph publicly dismissed me as an ignoramus, and I even received hate mail from a member of the City Council. Even family members and close friends in Guelph didn’t want to listen to me, and they were full of reasons not to wear masks that they had gleaned from television. In March, Canadians were two months behind the virus game, having complacently ignored the WHO’s increasingly dire contagion warnings until it was too late, and I knew full well that I was in the right. Vindication seems tasteless if it’s not at least as public as the as the violence of public humiliation. In the midst of a worsening pandemic, I have no regard for those people who dismissed me (with malicious prejudice) in March.
