A bunch of Canadians are stuck in Cancún, because they partied on the plane all the way from Canada to Mexico, maskless, no social distancing, passing around a bottle of vodka, and possibly doing drugs -which, of course, they videoed and posted on line to show what a wild bunch they were. Three Canadian airlines have refused to fly them back to Canada, citing the safety of other passengers and flight crews. Speaking in French, the Prime Minister has referred to them as « idiots » and « barbarians ». > **[3 airlines won't carry 'idiot' Quebecers who partied on way to Cancun](https://montrealgazette.com/news/local-news/group-of-rowdy-quebecers-on-flight-to-cancun-idiots-trudeau-says)** > > At least 30 are said to have tested positive for COVID — and Sunwing, Air Transat and Air Canada are refusing to bring them home. ---

Reading the article brought up this gem: “She (Rebecca St-Pierre, a 19 year-old student who was on the trip) estimated that about 30 others on the flight have tested positive.” “She said that ahead of the scheduled return trip, some people were putting Vaseline up their noses in an attempt to thwart COVID-19 testing.” ---
