    Opening the borders would be a slap in the face of can citizens still restricting their travel. In BC we have the india strain do gov is only allowing travel within health regions as of a couple days ago. We're doing ok with the percentage of first vaccinations. Few have been fully vaccinated country wide. Once we have a substantial amount fully vaccinated it might be time to consider borders

    They become endemic, but never "end" like you say. The "end" you speak of is the collective population pushing back on the "temporary" powers given to the terrance and phillip government that they will refuse to give up without public outrage.

    It'll happen as soon as the country is more or less back to normal. Just give us 4-6 weeks. We're a careful bunch up here, apparently.

    Canada only suspended flights from India on April 22nd, so it's no big secret how that strain got into Canada.

    Doesn't matter what people think. If it's a rule, they can follow or not come

    And the average canadien cannot travel outside their "health zone"?

    Oh the irony.

    We deserve another summer of Sea to Sky/Whistler Bike Park without Americans as a reward for getting through the pandemic! Keep the border closed until after labour day! Hearing they might relax rules on loading chairs as well which should kill line-ups in the park, could be an epic summer.

    Easy, you don't let them in. I'll say it again... if a person chooses not to be vaccinated, then Canada (or another country) can choose to keep them out. Seems pretty easy to me. What happens when you try to enter another country without a valid passport? Entry denied.

    Oh, and here's an interesting stat for all of our friendly neighbors to the north: in 2019, almost 21 million Canadians visited the US, but only 15 million US residents visited Canada. So you guys need us way more than we need you (discounting my need for more BC mountain biking this summer or fall, of course).

    Also dude, Canadien refers to French Canadians, which is a minority of the population. I know you're being cute and all, but you're actually referring to a very specific segment of the population. It's like if I was talking about Americans, but kept referring to them as Italian-Americans or what have you.

    Canada Closed until US Gets Covid 19 Under Control

    Is Manitoba a place? Never heard of it. Is it like Saskatoon? That’s a place, right?

    BC has restricted travel within BC the point of not being allowed to go from one part of a city to another.

    This type of TC is rarely warranted, much less effective, unless you have a huge disparity in prevalence AND susceptibility between the areas: one region that is truly clean and unvaccianted vs another area that has high prevalence. Then you effectively establish a cordon sanitaire like what China tried and failed to do early in the emerging outbreak (think January 2020). But proper application of this measure is at the boundary between clean and infected regions, not "no mingling between any sub-area of a city/province" without regard to local prevalence rates vs vaccination rates. There is no consideration for that and so what is accomplished? Curtailing freedom and economic activity for very little benefit!

    The virus is everywhere. Primary TC is by local restrictions on masking, distancing, and gatherings/business, not by sub-regional travel restrictions. The level of TC you gain by subregional or regional travel restrictions is minimal.

    Vaccinate the shit out of everyone ASAP while you mask+distance+curtail large indoor gatherings, then release restrictions on the vaccinated, and that is the key to population and economic health.

    Good to know, i guess since the only sexy Canadiens are the french ones.

    All i can picture are terrance and phillip hurling profanities at each other with split heads, eh.
