Things are getting bad enough in Ontario and Toronto that Justin Trudeau is sending us encouraging videos to comfort us.

In a video posted on Sunday, April 18, the prime minister urged Ontarians not to "give up" and laid out the ways the federal government and other provinces are helping Ontario deal with its third wave.

Trudeau mentioned that the feds are "mobilizing" frontline health care workers to go to Ontario and that he's reaching out to other Premiers to talk about ways to help Canada's largest province.

He even quoted Doug Ford — intentionally or otherwise — when he said that he's putting "everything on the table" in regards to federal support to help Ontarians get through the third wave.

"Again, the best way to beat back COVID is to do what we've done before and stop the spread," Trudeau said. "Now is not the time to give up."
