    This is strange.

    Let me know when you figure it out. I’m happy to revisit.

    You may be correct on MB though. I pulled that number from a news article that I can’t get into again because I exceeded my daily threshold of free ones. I’ll just concede that I’m incorrect on the case count in MB specifically, at least until I can get into the dang article again.

      Oh dude, no worries. I was wrong about the totals too. There’s way more cases in Canada than I was aware of. It’s weirdly difficult to find the specifics. Actually really surprised there’s fewer than 1000 in the US overall as well.
