Faced with a second COVID-19 lockdown, just 12 months after the first, I’ve convinced myself that I now have a better understanding of the term “Western Front”.

Those of us living in the two municipalities were faced with closure of non-essential businesses, limited public transportation and repeated calls to “stay home”, practice . . .
