    Just do what Mexico does and have everyone push a button that randomly illuminates either a green light, meaning you can enter, or red light and you get searched.

    See that ^^ is SO American, we don't have 2nd amendment rights, no carry of any kind is allowed so if a po-lice man seen anyone with a firearm of any kind in public they would be in big trouble

    he would disarm you by force, cuffed and into the back seat of the unit, sort it out at the station

    I think border closures might be over by then

    The thing is the rest of us are talking about potential solutions and you're still talking about last year. Time to move forward, don't you think?

    A guide I skied with told me about the airport security in Nepal, some security types were studying the x-ray baggage scanner looking for bombs

    Craig went to the washroom on the way back the screen on the x-ray M/C was visible

    well no you just want in now because you say you got the vax and we should believe you when you already rpoved its not a good idea to trust you to do the right thing or the smart thing?

    so I agree how do all the people who want to come in offer proof to CBSA and it is a lot of poeple BTW

    Where I went in NH, it was all on paper with national guard guys writing it down. That most likely was entered into a data base, but with that much data being plugged in manually there is bound to be a significant amount of errors. The push was to get shots in arms, more so than tracking who got the shot, which is obviously most important.

    Therefore, I don't see any reason for any country, state, province, whatever, to rush their openings. Conservative is the best approach especially in places that have not had the access the US has had to shots.

    Ours are definitdly revorded. Booked my first shot and recieved a text confirming it. When they had a wnd shot ready for me they texted agzin for me to book a time. Had the confirmation texted right after booking along with my booking code. Each shot nzme, address and date of birth are verified. Really well organized. There is no excuse not to be. No rewards for slackers

    The idea that there's going to be a mass rush on the Canadian border by Americans packing counterfeit vaccine cards is just flat-out laughable. Does anybody up there realize how off the rails that thinking is? Worse paranoia than the Trumpers and all their whacko conspiracy theories.

    Check the cards at the border, and if they look legit let 'em in. And if a few rare counterfeits do make it across, it ain't the end of the fucking world. Jesus.

    Well, a smidge of this. In before times I and a handful of colleagues were in mtl and Toronto every other week (in my case for 6 years or so). The fact that we have a vested interest in opening the border (and keeping it open) should tell you we would not fuck with it. If Americans respect anything , it’s money.

    If we were a bunch if redneck cousin fucking anti vaxxers just looking to shoot ducks and deer we could do that in upstate NY/VT (queue callback joke to upstate NY).

    That said, until my customers are in their offices the Laps of luxury that are the Shang-ri-la on university and the W off Victoria square will have to wait. Though I live a good boondoggle more than most burnt out under achieving bay/wall st types.

    You're kinda fucking dumb, eh?

    Their vaccination rate isn't high enough yet. And do you recall how this all started with ONE fucking person? So a few fucktards sneak in and happen to infect one person and kills them. No big deal.

    Stupid fucking self absorbed Americans. Jeezus

    Just saying if Canadians are worried about Americans faking their vax cards to go fish, hunt, and ski in Canada, I think that's not likely to happen. All those things can be easily done in the U.S. So there's no need for the border guards to have access to a national database of who's been vaxxed and who hasn't, all you really need to do is check cards at the border and I think that represents a reasonable approach to keeping unvaxxed people out. Does anybody really think a family of 5 is going to make a bunch of fake cards to go on a ski vacation when they can ski down here? Doesn't make much sense.

    Like your gun culture. your southern border policies. US health care anyone? etc, etc.
    Sorry, using the common sense of the average resident of the US as a justification doesn't really ring true to those of us on the other side of that invisible line.

    Another reason the federal government haven't opened the border is that the conservative premiers (Ford and Kenney) have been railing against Trudeau for not closing the borders. To the point of having attack ads about it.

    So if they open the borders and case counts go up then they will have more ammo.

    How can they rail on him for not closing the border when the border has been closed?
