I'm working from home for the forseeable future. Luckily it's a small company, with good remote desktop setups.
The Sprawl has a great comic about coronavirus.

Shutting down K-12, PSE, civil service working from home, bringing the number down to 100 person gatherings (which will close movie theatres likely).

Likely only University of Lethbridge, University of Alberta and University of Calgary. Only University of Calgary is announced so far.

Oh I figured it was all.
It's pretty mental that U of A didn't do it a while ago, since two of their professors are positive.

Fort McMurray has chronic supply shortages at the best of times. Fort McMurray is incredibly connected through social media. Most of the population communicates through local Facebook groups. Currently exploding with where can I find ANYTHING posts and photos of empty shelves. No milk, bread, meat, eggs, produce, diapers etc. Like bare. It’s like everyone suddenly woke up.

Mostly working from home, which is usual for me anyways. I only go to my office IN the office a couple times a month tops normally. This virus might delay my move to Calgary a little bit, not sure yet. ?
I was just thinking about Fort Mac when I was in the grocery store today. Most of the store was surprisingly well stocked, but some items were sold out....like it is in Fort Mac on a fairly regular basis. Overheard some of the comments from people, they were shocked to see some items sold out,

I was at the Beddington COOP yesterday and it was mostly business as usual. A few items (like pasta, butter and toilet paper) sold out, but for the most part well stocked.
