The COVID-19 pandemic

how fast we can get improved HVAC systems in the schools (if we are even doing that? I know it was trending on Twitter the other day and people were wondering how the hell we can upgrade HVAC in thousands of schools across the country)

Last Thursday's announcements included $50 million (new money I think, not reserves, assuming I'm reading it correctly) provincially for HVAC.

The money is there, but there are thousands of schools across the county. There is surely no way to get all of that up and running by September. CTV states there are over 4800 public schools in Ontario alone. How do they plan on sourcing all the parts or brand new HVAC units (which are surely in dire need...schools can barely stay heated in winter) never mind install and test them all before September? That's a couple weeks away. I doubt there are even enough certified HVAC technicians in Ontario to tackle a job this big.
