Thinking of cancelling next years EPIC pass. :( If Delta then wave.
Rumor has it that it's going to a one way street pre-July 21. Fully vaxed Canadians will be able to come down to the states and return without quarantine.
Friend of mine’s family owns a couple of islands off the coast of Victoria. They haven’t been able to go there this whole time. We joked about annexing them. Pretty sure they have a strange pleasure about the islands technically being in Canada even though they might as well be in the US San Juan’s.Quote:

RE is stupid high everywhere in Canada, so will "hurt the RE market" be the same as the RE bubble bursting ?

Yeah, the Bellingham Costco is going to be a real hoot in July.
I did book a trip to BC in August. Now I need Justin Trudeau to come through for me...
It's already started. Saw three BC plates yesterday, and overheard a conversation that included one distinctly Canadian accent.
Don't be so sensitive bro. Just yanking your sanctimonious chain. :)Quote:

Or is that still TBD?

Still tbd, but if I were a betting man, I'd say it opens.
Where did you see anything leading to that opinion? The articles I've read make it sound like the powers-that-be in Canada want 75% of their population fully vaccinated before they open their borders... and that's not happening anytime this summer or fall.Quote:

Chances are Kenney will let anyone in the back door

So as an Albertian I can get back into Alberta, wtihout a quarantine, after july 5th, with proof of 2 vaccine shots.
But can I get into 'Merica in the first place? What are the current restrictions for Canuks going south, by ground?
Pretty sure Trudeau initially said the goal post was 75% with at least one shot, and they're already achieved that, but their Public Safety Minister said "approximately" 75% fully vaxed yesterday.
But I didn't hear or read anything official. I was just talking with a few people I know in Canada who said that the number of doses becoming available in July has increased dramatically, and that everyone who's had their first shot will be able to get their second.
I think you can travel freely if your name is actually Gordon.
Just back from the family fishing trip on the west coast of Van Is. No american boats, and very few albertans. It was such a nice pleasurable trip. Caught our limits too. I could really get used to this.
The provincial travel restrictions between health authorities lifted last Wednesday. The BC ferries website crashed that same day from all the lower mainlanders trying to book reservations over to the island. Ferries were mostly empty going from the island to Vancouver though. Lost of RV's and the like on the highways heading east and north too. Gonna be a gongshow once the little ones are out of school. Again, I am glad inter-provincial travel is requested to be essential only, and international travel restricted.

Nah, it's 75% of the eligible population.Quote:

Since the border closures always seem to be 4 weeks long I'd expect it to be open on July 21 in some capacity, probably still testing required. What's more important, however, is the general population doesn't seem to care that it opens right now. Until that changes, I wouldn't expect much.

Even if you reading this are double vaxed the fact is that livivng in the country with the most available vax/ high vax hesiteancy and the most Covid dead might be your clue as to why the border has stayed closed,
So whats the rush ? if the border needs to be closed again due to out break that will cost mo money/ lives/ time ... Canadians & Americans seem to be on different pages eh
I think what Americans don't understand is why Canadians are not ready to move on and allow vaxxed Americans while the EU (and a good chunk of the rest of the western world) will. Canada's decision making seems horribly illogical.Quote:

Do those people even go to Canada? The average American who travels to Canada is wealthy, most likely liberal, highly educated, and fully vaxed. Basically a dentist who posts on TGR.Quote:

if you spin it like this ^^ its a very different view from upstairs
when & how to move on is the question and how to administer whom will be allowed across will be very time consuming for the feds
Isn't this more about getting all the provincial leaders to align and be on the same page? The situation is different in different provinces. I'm just repeating myself now. I called Sept and I think that's probably still right. 2 doses for 75% of Canadians seems to be the magic number so that if people who are not vaxxed come in, the bulk of Canadians are protected. At least that is what the Quebec Premier said. Wait I just repeated myself again from like two pages ago.Quote:

If you spin it like that it also shows you are reacting more at an emotional level than a fact-based level, too. The idea is to open the border for those who are vaxxed.Quote:

well is the rhetoric we have been fed on the CBC about America during Covdi all true,
how much fact based stuff went on down there during covid ?
if you goggle the amount of people who cross the 49th its lots
how do you control that ?
Canada will take its time and get it right ( probably not really )
or you could just call in an airstrike
well they all have to kind of play nice, but why does he need to so why would he, closing the border to disease ridden Americans has always polled well on the ipso's reid ?Quote:

essential visitors who are vaxxed can get in now np on july 5th, or the day after white people’s independence day if you prefer.
