Border closed

Canada/US border is closed this morning.
Hope all Canadian snowbirds will make it back.

If you are travelling through California and Washington, please do not bring the virus with you.

Border closed

[QUOTE=luckyd;5189507]
There needs to be clarification on this.
The Canada US boarder is closing to non essential travel.
Canadian snowbirds CAN return.
American travelers CAN return to USA.
Truckers, fuel supplies, medicine etc will still be shipped.

Mandatory 14 day self quarantine will be imposed when re-entering Canada.

Please don’t post these abbreviated versions of the facts.

Admins - suggest you delete this thread - this is not fact based - all that has been done so far is that President Trump tweeted with no specifics and DID NOT say the border is closed.

Post #1 is how rumours start.

Post #2 is correct.

Post #3 echoes my post.

This should end this thread.

Canadian Prime Minister on TV today said border was closed for all "recreation and tourism." His words, not mine.

Odds

Anybody willing to guess? Think the border will be open by June? Or should I cancel my Canadian adventure?

Where’s a qualified psychic when you need one now?

If they really knew their stuff, they’d be on TV instead of ............

Anybody can guess, but what good would a guess be? There is no data on which to base a reasoned opinion.

There are many people trying to get home. Posting partial information, such as border is closed, is frustrating to those trying to get home.
The border is not closed ( in entirety).
It is closed to non essential travel.
It is open to those trying to get home.

This is a big problem for full time Canadians that need RV parks to be open with water turned on. Getting home is not the problem, it's finding a open RV park to stay at in Canada.
