Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis defended his record on handling the COVID-19 pandemic, remarking that if he did not stand up to the continued overreach by the federal government, the U.S. as a whole would be as severely locked down and economically depressed as Canada.
"You just have so many threats to freedom nowadays. And what we're doing is we've essentially, ‘Katie, bar the door' to protect Floridians and to protect their freedoms and opportunities. And you see it in a number of different ways," said DeSantis, who himself recently topped former President Donald Trump in a prospective 2024 straw poll of conservatives. Meanwhile, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau renewed his policy keeping the U.S.-Canada border closed to most traffic outside of commercial activities for at least another month. Much of Canada is still under economic lockdown.
