Fuck off with lungbleach's bullshit. He spent years (and claims to have spent millions) trying to prove his racist BS, and came up with the exact same amount of evidence as his current big lie.Quote:

its in here ^^ and there is probably more to it, sound like you could be turned away flying or driving
" Since 9/11, the US and Canada have been sharing a lot of information about their residents, and your DUI is likely to show up when your passport is scanned or your name is entered at the border crossing "
Ya, that just says Canada and US are sharing more data with each other. It doesn't say the data from the US is 100% accurate. It's all data entry. Court clerks fuck up all the time and one error can snowball. Old DUIs especially. DUIs are particularly complicated because they are classified as a more serious offense in Canada (we Americans liked to get fucked up and drive, it's our pastime). And Canada's DUI laws are not exactly the same as US DUI laws. So for instance, a WA DUI gets you banned from Canada but if you get your DUI reduced to Negligent driving 1st, you are ok. If you get it amended to Reckless Driving, you are most likely not ok, but it can depend on the boarder guard's mood (I recommend you strike up a conversation about the local hockey team).
The point being, pretending the US's vaccination record system is grounds to exclude Americans is ludicrous to me because Canada relies on the US's criminal conviction record keeping. It's a straw man argument.
" Technically, driving under the influence (DUI), driving while intoxicated (DWI), and similar charges are criminal offences in Canada, which means that even if your record was a misdemeanor in the US, you might be deemed to have committed a criminal offence in Canada. "
never mind that its white American terrorists killing all the Americans It was the USA who wanted the info sharing so they could catch muslim terrorists apres 911
which also caught all them criminals with a DUI
what part of criminal don't you understand ?
you also find the whole border being closed for a year thing to be ludicrous but its still closed and so now it will be closed to " criminals " who are unvaxed
You can enter Canada if you are charged with a WA DUI (gross misdemeanor) that is amended down to Negligent Driving 1st (a misdemeanor), which is very common on your first offense in WA. Both charges are "criminal." So the point being, there are US criminal convictions out there that Canada does not use to exclude entry. This is all based on Canada's immigration laws. There's probably a BC court case on the subject. Washington's Negligent Driving 1st, despite being a criminal conviction, is ok, because the elements of that offense do not match any criminal charge in Canada. The elements of Neg Dr 1 are "driving in a negligent manor while exhibiting the effects of consuming alcohol or drugs. Negligent means failure to use ordinary care." Note, that you don't have to be drunk or even "appreciably affected" as is the case of DUI, just "exhibiting the effects." So like odor of alcohol on your breath is enough. That would not be a crime in Canada so Canada says come on in my friend.
My understanding is that as much of it has to do with the penalty. If your penalty (sentence, remuneration, whatever) would have satisfied Canada law as well, then you're good to go.
I think you misunderstand my point. It is precisely because the record keeping is neither good or consistent that he was enabled (in part) to continue making his outlandish statements.Quote:

If it wasn't a problem, states wouldn't have spent millions trying to address it (like with the NYS app, among others).
This is a pro and con for people in general (a large hack is less likely to expose sensitive information than with a centralized database) but illuminates the different problem of verifying information.
If the records were accessible and uniform, we would never have heard about a market for fake cards... the criminality proves the point. Whether it matters to Canada or not after they're 75% vaxxed, is up to them.
Has anything meaningful been done to address these shortcomings since this was published?

At 80% they believe further infections will no longer strain the healthcare system. There is no current method to keep any variant out of Canada - they'll all get here one way or another with or without tourism.Quote:

Lots of poorly educated Canadian nationalists it seems.
there is also that thing where people dying kind of sucksQuote:

It makes me chuckle to see that only conservative politicians get lambasted by the left wing media for failing to keep the coronavirus out of their borders. Lots of examples of progressive world leaders and countries that didn't fare any better, but for some reason it remains a closed minded persons talking point.Quote:

Trump failed to do anything but lie to the American public,
which is probably why he lost assuming you believe he lost
so far America has won the Death race altho Brazil is coming on strong
pretty strong showing by 2 conservatives coming in 1st and 2nd eh
You guys dont watch "border security" ? With dui you are no bueno based on how high you blow. If it was below our .08 youre ok to enter. Above , go back home.
Also @altaS it was mentioned in the threadcabout some nurse showing up at a kids b day party and distributing the excess vaxes she had. Mass. has said they dodnt keep a lot of the vax records or dont/didnt have a system in place to register the shots online. Until weakbased shows up and says the msm lied im going with that mass. Story as legit

Death Race LOLOL. Number of deaths relative to population is the metric you are looking for, but based on your earlier responses you like to just count.
I love how people are throwing around this arbitrary 75% number now fed to you by the Canadian gov't and media.
We don't know what percentage we need for herd immunity yet. Herd immunity can be reached anywhere from 75%-95% based on the R-naught value of the virus in question. We do know this this virus is more contagious than other known viruses which would indicate a higher percentage needed than your magical 75% number (closer to 95% needed like measles which has an r value of 12-18). Add in breakthrough cases after vaccination, and the magic 75% percent number is still closer to 65%. Again. Statistics. Science.
Be prepared to close the borders for a LONNNG time because this virus and the eventual variants aren't going away any time soon.

75 million people listened to him, there are probably more people in America who didnt vax on political principle than there are in Canada
So here we got 45 pages of
let us in ?
no you suck
we don't really ?
yeah you do so we are going to get 75% of our country vaccinated before you get let in and if you aren't vaxed it will be a long time more than that
Well since the majority of those were the result of all the people flying into JFK, La Guardia, etc. before Trump did anything about international travelers, I'm going with Trump.Quote:

when you deal with CBSA you are dealing with a federal civil servant, I briefly worked for the feds dealing with all of them IME you don't want to need to deal with these people
a lot of people work on one side live on the other side, whole bunch of medical types, I do wonder what they have been doing for work ?Quote:
