I think Canada is doing a better job at lock down than the states. The list of essentials is very long but police are enforcing much better. The government is also subsidizing lost income to businesses and employees. Last I heard it was like 80 something billion dollars being given out. I doubt the states could ever dream of doing that.
It's going to be a disaster for small business in the states for sure.
You're right about Canada doing a better job -- but a lot of the issue here has to do with attitudes toward being told what to do by the local government. I don't think anyone in North Texas self-isolated for more than 3 days after spring break. They've closed a lot of stuff, but they haven't really gotten anyone to stay inside at all. So everyone's just out doing nothing.
