Many establishments in the popular shopping, dining, and bar area of the Byward Market have boarded up their front windows with plywood to reduce the chance of robbery while they remain closed due to the pandemic and restrictions of gatherings. The Kinki restaurant did not board up its windows but did place a sign informing any would-be robbers that "ALL CASH, BEER + BOOZE HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM THIS PREMISES." Many of the shops and restaurants which did not board up its windows has similar signs.

Many establishments in the popular shopping, dining, and bar area of the Byward Market have boarded up their front windows with plywood to reduce the chance of robbery while they remain closed due to the pandemic and restrictions of gatherings. While some remain plain, or are painted black, other establishments chose to hire muralists to liven up the natural wood with images related to vibe of each bar. The Aude Dubliner Irish pub in the Market has some of its windows covered with murals depicting small items of significance for the pub in addition to plastered posters explaining the shut down. While there are more murals and posters around its corner, no photographs were taken out of respect for the homeless individuals taking advantage of the patio and overhang there as a place to sleep.

Boarded up Bars in the Byward Market: Heart and Crown Posters Many establishments in the popular shopping, dining, and bar area of the Byward Market have boarded up their front windows with plywood to reduce the chance of robbery while they remain closed due to the pandemic and restrictions of gatherings. While some remain plain, or are painted black, other establishments chose to hire muralists to liven up the natural wood with images related to vibe of each bar. Some also plastered the wood with posters. One such poster display is on one of the boarded windows of the Heart and Crown pub not taken up by murals. Riffing off the popular Second World War posters in Britain which read "Keep Calm and Carry On" they read "Keep Calm and Shop Local" as well as "Keep Calm and Support Local Artists" in an attempt to create a sense of solidarity and duty when facing this crisis. They were created by the Byward Market itself.

"The 13 Native-led small businesses and non-profit ventures selected from a pool of nearly 50 applications for the competitive Change Labs 2020 Business Incubator Cohort share a passion for their work, a hunger to learn, and a drive to make things better for their families, their communities and their people."

The boards on the windows of the Chateau Lafayette, often called simply "the Laff" by locals, read "It's going to be OK./ We'll be back." A sentiment which at the beginning of the pandemic, in late March, was comforting but now seems overly optimist and distant.

This is a poetic prose I wrote about staying valiant and resilient during isolation. Humanity is fickle but one thing no one can take away from us is the indomitable spirit that we possess, especially in the face of adversity.

"Tuuvi Travel Center in Moenkopi, Arizona informs travelers that the main store is closed and with only the drive thru window open for business.

"

A flyer/poster stapled to an electrical/telephone pole at the corner of McArthur Avenue and the Vanier Parkway, next to a now well known mural in support of frontline workers and across the street from a large grocery store. The area around this pole hosts several apartment tours and the Vanier neighbourhood has a reputation as an area which, in some part, hosts numerous impoverished individuals. The poster is promoting the movement for non payment of rent if circumstances are such that it is impossible during the pandemic, and the prevention of eviction during the pandemic. This is a contensious issue; there are those who feel landlords are profiting from misery and the basic need for shelter while others do not feel depriving landlords of income is the answer and that the renting of properties is a perfectly legitimate method of earning a living. The sign reads "DIDN'T PAY YOUR RENT?/ WHAT COMES NEXT?/ Jobs lost./ Hours cut./ Bills to pay./ Families to feed./ CONNECT WITH YOUR NEIGHBOURS" followed by several different contacts

Based on an initial sketch called 'Front Line' which was part of a fundraiser to provide brown-bag meals to health care workers, this mural by artist Dominic Laporte is positioned along the side of the busy Vanier Parkway across from a Loblaws grocery store.

This is a journal I wrote my self for a school assignment to recount what it was like living through the COVID 19 crisis

The pandemic is obviously a bad thing. However, there have been a little bit of good that has come out of it. For example, many people now have the time to revisit and develop hobbies that they previously never had time for before the pandemic. Perhaps, they've even picked up new ones. For me, I got the chance to improve my photography and editing. I couldn't shoot people for obvious reasons, so I took my car out instead! The quarantine has definitely given myself and many others a chance to invest more time into the hobbies that we enjoy doing.

As Tasmanians, saturated in the flood of online media content, look on at the state of the world, feelings range from extreme anxiety, compassion with those in crisis centres, to smug repose (“at least we are not in that country”). This last response seems particularly rife today, but it struggles to conceal an inherent coldness which we don’t otherwise normally like to attribute to ourselves. Not only does this attitude overlook that fact that we have our own dead, or that the cost of life is of a value that far outpaces numerical value (comparing our figures with death-tolls in other places), we ignore those without home in the very place in which all of us are meant to dwell together. Prior to the lockdown, Tasmania’s capital city Hobart underwent a housing crisis. But as we wait on Canberra to get things moving along - exactly as they were before or, even better than before - we should keep in mind that not everything is possible just because money is behind it. To return to the housing crisis: this challenges all of us to think about our responsibility towards those forgotten in our own home. Genuine responsibility begins with compassion, not money. I feel like, too often, we reverse the formula.

This photograph was taken as Garden Grove High School began to go into lockdown and at the time, students and even teachers did not take the situation very seriously. We jokingly said that “The school would never shut down over this! Yeah right!” I took this picture and posted it onto social media captioning it “pSa: donT tOuCh yOur FacE #coronavirus” using the capital and lower case letters to emphasize my sarcasm. As time went by I began to understand the severity of the problem at hand and took it more seriously. It just goes to show how fast the pandemic evolved from something that we heard about that was happening across the globe to affecting us and the tens of millions of people worldwide.

This was found on a website called talent recap.com, “Hate Crimes and Racist Assaults Against Asians In American Escalates due to Coronavirus”. It introduces the viewers to several events that had happened during the coronavirus and how many asian descents are discriminated for “being the cause of the coronavirus”. During this pandemic I have noticed how so many people are being assaulted from other ignorant people about how they started this virus and that they should be tortured or blamed for the things that has happened. This is important to me because one time when I was in public with my sister to get some groceries, we came with gloves and masks on because we know we have a weak immune system and we also tend to get sick easily so we came protected, but when we went in the meat isle to get steak, a couple was standing there with no gloves on or masks stared at us and walked by saying “Go back to your homeland you chink” while i was speaking in Vietnamese to my mom. I was so angry at that time but I remained calm because we were in public at that time, however it angers me that in events like the one on the website shows how a father and his kids were attacked, in this case stabbed, because they were asians that were seen in public. And it sucks that so many innocent asian people are harmed so much because of others being prejudice based on their ancestry of being an Asian.

A Van Gogh painting was stolen from a museum in the Netherlands due to closure because of COVID-19.

Studying from home meant that I had to find a lot of materials around my house to create my workspace, whereas I usually study in the university library or in cafes. This image shows my precarious standing desk I created one day when I had been sitting down too long!

My girlfriend was housesitting for a man who was unfortunately on a cruiseship when coronavirus hit, and he had to be quarantined on Rottnest island. This box was ironically holding toilet paper, but we repurposed it to be a cat café and wrote that he was only serving us takeaway due to COVID-19 restrictions.

I went to the dentist and saw this on the front desk.

"The Blackfeet Tribe wants everyone to be as safe as possible. The safety and wellbeing of our elders, children, families and communities is paramount."

“I want to compliment my staff on doing an awesome job,” she said. “Their hearts are totally in it, keeping people safe at all costs. Our number one goal is lives over everything.”

"With the discovery of a woman testing positive for coronavirus at Blackfeet Community Hospital last Saturday at 9 p.m., the Blackfeet Tribe was reinforced in its April 23 decision to adopt stricter guidelines than those recommended by Governor Steve Bullock."

The Blackfeet Tribe reached a landmark last week as personnel from the Southern Piegan Health Center and the Tribal Health Improvement Program set up a drive-through coronavirus testing station at the old Eagle Shields.

Being in CA, especially the OC area where the protests were held, this sense of selfishness is very well now. Many people here tend to be extroverts and feel the need to go out. What they don't know is how fast this virus spreads and how long it takes before you can actually feel the symptoms. Just because your state has slowly started to open up again, it doesn't mean the virus has slowed down or that all of a sudden you're immune. Also, living with my grandfather and grandmother, I see how scary this time must be for them. I try to stay home as much as possible because I know if I get it, they'll get it as well and that puts their life at risks. We are under quarantine for a reason and I think people need to realize that. People's lives are at risk. Please try and stay home or always social distance yourself when you are out. I don't want to lose my family members.

"- When it comes to containing the coronavirus, communities all around the world are having to take unique steps that work for them. And that's true as well for Montana's native tribes."

Letter from our Principal, Jim Swetter, about the alternative graduation ceremonies for 2020 Cactus Shadows High School seniors.

This is a recorded conversation with a teaching colleague, Lauren, who works as the Math Department Chair at St. James Academy in San Diego. Since the beginning of the pandemic, and especially in California since the stay at home order on March 17th, teachers have done the incredible in teaching their students at a distance. Lauren shares her experiences at her school, reflections, and thoughts on the current state of education.

This entry focuses on the transition to online learning in order to practice social distancing. Prior to the pandemic, I would have to wake up early to go to school. Then, I'd quickly run home after school, so that I would be punctual to my guitar lesson. As the tide has turned, this is no longer my reality. Now, I do online schooling and guitar lessons within the comfort of my own room, at any hour of the day. An hour of light-hearted life chats, bluesy riffs, and all sorts of musical banter relieves my good friend, guitar teacher, and myself of our quarantine blues. This is us, this is our quarantine lyfe.

A photo of my son before his reimagined graduation ceremony at Cactus Shadows High School. Masks were required of all students and their 2 guests.

A couple of years ago, I decided to paint a picture of the ocean because of how much I admired its beauty, realizing how lucky I was to be able to visit it in person anytime I liked as it was only a mere twenty minutes away. I would have never thought two years later in 2020 a global pandemic would occur and take away this joy in my life, keeping everyone all cooped up in their homes in hopes of slowing the spread of COVID-19. While it was hard to have to leave school in the middle of junior year, adjust to online AP exams, depart from teachers and friends, stop playing sports, and so much more, I know social distancing is a necessity during this difficult time. I understand this pandemic has changed many of our lives quite negatively as we have to isolate ourselves and sacrifice going out to have fun and socialize; however that does not mean people should flood the beaches or malls out of spite or as part of a protest against the government's orders. Though I wish I could go outside to an amusement park or beach with my family and friends, I know what's more important is respecting all the essential workers by staying home, and I hope more people are able to understand this bigger picture as well.

A school graduation is supposed to be unforgettable - people from all over coming together to celebrate a moment that most students cherish for the rest of their lives. Now with the pandemic, we are forced to graduate within the comforts of our home, yet we feel more disconnected than ever. This picture represents the great memories we made in high school, the great experiences we lost, and the great friends and family that surround and propel us in life. To the class of 2020, these are not easy times, but we will get through them. With your leadership and spirit, the world will be stronger than ever. The object is a photograph, and I took this picture at my high school.

The attached image is a screenshot from an Instagram story I posted on March 17, making light at the end of a few days of attempting to access medicine and joke about my growing confidence in my ability to handle the pandemic situation, even if I did end up ill. Directly following the declaration of a state of emergency in Ontario, in March, I realized I was running low on a maintenance prescription I take and had no refills left on it. To have my family doctor back home, in Ottawa, fax it to a pharmacy in the London, where I was attending the University of Western Ontario at the time, it usually costs $30 out of pocket, so I wanted to see if I could get an appointment before I tried that. I checked the student health website to see if they were restricting appointments and all seemed normal so I called. Plus, with my asthma and history of respiratory infections, I thought it would be a good idea to have a Flovent (steroid) puffer (inhaler) on hand in case I do get sick. I was on hold for 40 mins only to have the receptionist get exceptionally snarky with me and eventually tell me they were not taking regular appointments at that time. So, I called my family physician's office and they/she not only faxed the prescription I was low on but also the puffer and waved the renewal fee. The receptionist said many doctors are doing this to avoid people requesting in person appointments to have prescriptions done, as those are covered in socialized health care. Having the puffer available to me if I began having difficulty breathing is greatly reassuring both in that I would be less likely to require other medical intervention with it at my disposal, but also that I would not be taking up resources from someone who might have the disease worse or be at a higher risk than me, an otherwise health young woman.

A sign a child made in a Toronto neighbourhood to remind people of what physical distancing in. The child expresses concern for his community, the world, and for his baby sister especially. The sign reads "Because of Covid-19 6 ft apart at all time's./ And wash your hands every one has [illegible]/ we need our neighborhood I have a Baby sister so I want every one to be [illegible] to be safe and the world." It features two drawings, one of a boy and girl 2 "feet" (semicircles) apart with an x over their heads and another with a boy and a girl 6 "feet" (semicircles) apart with a check over their heads. While it was likely a serious project for the creator, the friend who took the picture because she was amused by drawing when she saw it on a walk around her neighbourhood.
