Provincial Restrictions vs Personal Responsibility

Jason Teale is a long time friend. We've known each other for over 20 years, and worked together a lifetime ago.
He's a Brandon boy who has been living and teaching in South Korea since 2003 and is a brilliant photographer. He has his Masters in Education, and his photos have been featured in National Geographic. He also hosts The Sajin Photography Podcast, which inspired me to start my Q and U Podcast. 
I was fortunate to be able to catch up with him, discuss how the pandemic is being dealt with in Korea versus here in Canada.
I was absolutely blown away to find out that in an area, roughly the size of Manitoba, with a population of over 51,000,000 people, they got this under control far quicker, and with far less restrictions than we have dealt with.
