I feel no need to wear one to protetc myslef or others. Almost everyone has had the opportuinity to get the vaccine. There choice, not mine. I am somewhat perplexed while all those setting policy do not base their polciy on that thought. If some are stupid enough not to get the vaccine, let Darwin do his thing.

So, when the border finally does open? Do I need to leave the head and/or a little patch of skin on lakers... declare my Cuban cigars... coming back... Are potatoes, meat, pot... still an issue entering? No worries. I'll simply assume I'd still have to wear pants in either direction.

	My original comment about whenever they open the border still stands. I want to know exactly what I'll be getting into Covid wise when I go across? You just had those 2 passengers on that fully vaccinated cruise ship test positive for Covid when they checked all the passengers before they returned to port. They are in isolation now and they are doing contact tracing etc. Will they test us both ways going into Canada? Do the same if you test positive? I don't like surprises. Whatever protocol the respective countries decide on needs to be clear and we'll go from there. I heard they are looking into a NO pants option when they open the border. db will be pleased

	While I'm optimistic, the only concrete change is lessening the quarantine requirements for returning Canadian citizens. I do think Trudeau will eventually cave to the increasing pressure from border politicians, travel trade groups, and citizens. I'd guess around August 1 for US citizens to enter Canada. May require both vaccinations and testing.

	IF these views are supported by the government, I don't see the border being open fully anytime soon? (You need to *Login* or *Register* to view media files and links)

	Well I was just camping with Pineknot up on LLC and we thought maybe the next best date for the border opening would be September something. Here's hoping.
