Nice excuse. We say, start there.

By staying in Pakistan she could motivate people in a better way.If she does not come back it won’t hurt anybody.People will say she has chosen to stay in a safe heaven.

She spoke her mind...the ground truth...

Who in canada wants to return to pakistan

Does anyone requested her to comeback ?

Smart move against a "smart lockdown".

It’s fine as long as you are safe wherever you’re.

We are good so please don't come and enjoy your paradise.

Not that we are dying to have Bushra Ansari back but it is important to take Corona seriously and necessary protective measures are taken into consideration. We have to somehow survive until remedy/ vaccine is found.

Pragmatic and realistic approach. No need of emotions here.

People of Pakistan made you star, You are a part of the crowd if you are not a star.

And Pakistan will not take it seriously until she returns

Bushra Ansari's good decision.

Madam Bushra, I hope you don't get into the list of paranoids. I live in the same vicinity as you in Canada and I cannot deny the fact how many people are still on the roads and even on the beaches. If we cannot stop here, I don't if I can stop anything in Pakistan which is more than 6 times the population of Canada. Being careful is good but but when we talk about bigger populations there is always going to be someone outside of their house. People cannot be caged in. Just look at what is going on in Minnesota, USA. So given that, I find your comment to Pakistan a bit unfair. Pakistan is not there yet where Amazon or Walmart will deliver groceries or you can call someone using Google Home Mini or have Alexa turn down your house temperatures because electricity breakdowns still happen and people live in joint family systems which, after a while, can have their own frustrations. This pushes people to sometimes be outside. The important thing is that NOT the entire nation is outside.

Good advice from Miss Pak.

Sounds good! Take your time.

Bushra, good advice to all Pakistanis and I'm positive, all Pakistanis will listen to your good advice in how to protect themselves from COVID-19 by wearing mask, keep social distancing and stay at home as much as they can.

Not sure if I read the news correctly. Which foreign country is she currently residing.

So you are never planning to come back?

Agreed, people are not taking Covid 19 serious

She is 100% correct... Very upfront courageous statement.

Yes, I too love and miss Pakistan. But unfortunately due to the difficult cicurcumstances the world is in we will have to wait. Usually I spent the time watching Pakistani dramas with ammi.

Who needs her, let her stay over there for good...... Thanks Bushra

Actually she is afraid to contract Corona in Pakistan thats whynot coming back.

Bushra is a real patriot and cares for Pakistanis. Her advice should be heeded. Salute to you.

Knowing Pakistani culture and style, and if Bushraji stick to her words, I am assuming her staying permanently in Canada.

We are about to cry because you not coming.

Bushra Jee, please do not change your mind when the winter comes, and since the situation is the same South, also avoid visiting friends/relatives there. Best of Luck at your new home.

She should say this to IK.

Stay in Toronto....you will be safe....here in pakistan situation is grim ...about to explode with lockdown lifted....nobody is taking any precaution....

Stay there auntie, we won't miss you

You all need to take this seriously or she won't come. This is not a drill people.

Good decision. She should stay there. This nation is filled up with idiots and fools. Khanay ko roti nae aur chalay shopping karnay.

@Khadija : Yes, IK will come , stop you from going to Phoppo's eid party, wash your hands and cover your mouth/nose. Be realistic !

We pray for her quick recovery. She is a national asset.

Smart lady. She is confused like Pakistani policy makers.

People in Pakistan are not listening to more powerful personalities who are constantly reminding people to use preventative measures to avoid the virus, and yet they are going in bazaars with their young children without masks without regard for social distancing. Sorry to say that Smart lock down is only for "smart" people.

So Bushra Ansari may be gone for quite some time as Pakistanis and their government are not at all inclined to take Corona seriously.

@Anonymous why are you so upset about how other people live their lives, carry on with your life and be happy, life is too short to be criticizing others.

What else she can do? Tweet on twitter and people will start religiously follow her whatever she says? I think she's right. People here don't follow SOP's. You can't fight her on this if she doesn't want to return only people to be blamed because they're just stupid walking without masks like a headless chicken. Everyday shopper: Social distance what the heck is this thing?

Stay safe and live in a beautiful country,there in nothing return in a country with ugly uncivilized people.

You are absolutely right Bushra ji. Stay where you are as this nation is beyond limits. They do not understand the seriousness. They are arrogant and ignorant. Their behaviour has made this virus spread so rapidly. Everyone went for Eid prayers, shopping and everyone visited their families on Eid, full eid parties, gatherings, hand shakes and hugs. Ahhh please you need to be 2 meter away , social distancing makes no sense to our nation. Even people with symptoms are neglecting and saying it's common cold , viral infection but not agreeing its Corona despite it spreading to whole house hold. Huge frustration, have no words. Jahalat aur ghaflat both embedded in their personality.

No point in taking risks for a careless government.

Stay there. Bye!

No one asked her to return
