The British Columbia Premier John Horgan requested two Canadian celebrities, Seth Rogan and Ryan Reynolds, to dish out some advice for youths who are still partying amid the coronavirus pandemic, and their response were unique to their personalities.
Reynolds addressed the matter with a 90-second voicemail on Twitter. “Young folks in BC, yeah, they’re partying, which is, of course, is dangerous, and they probably don’t know that thousands of young people aren’t just getting sick from coronavirus, that they’re also dying from it too,” Reynolds said in the message.
The Deadpool star then got really personal by dragging his mother into the picture. “I hope that young people of BC don’t kill my mom, frankly, or David Suzuki or each other,” he chimed in, referring to them as “some of the coolest old people on earth” who live in the country.
“Let’s not kill anyone. I think that’s reasonable,” he concluded.
Rogan, on the other hand, offered some tips expected of the Pineapple Express actor, since his films and media presence have always been linked to smoking pot. So, his words of wisdom didn’t come off as too much of a surprise.
“People of British Columbia! Please do not go out to parties and BBQs and other large gatherings! The COVID is still out there,” he announced, before suggesting, “It’s more fun to hang out alone and smoke weed and watch movies and TV shows anyway! Do that instead! Thank you!”
