If you look at what Trudeau is saying...in that he wants 75% of our population to have one vaccine shot before he opens the border...First off, kids under 12 can't get vaccinated yet, Second, a certain percentage (wouldn't be surprised if it is as high as 10-15%), won't get vaccinated for one reason or another....Mr. Socks might never open the border again !! I could only find the population stats for age 0-14 from 2018, which in Canada was 16.1 %, so lets go with even 10% under 12....The way I see this is that a 75% vaccination rate of our population could be a LONG TIME coming or certainly not until kids under 12 can get it. But then, Mr. Socks was a Drama Teacher,,,not a Math Teacher. Would it not make sense that when you cross the border you show a vaccination card/certificate and you are good to go?? Guess here in Canada that would infringe on our Constitutional Rights ! I feel terrible for our American neighbors who come to Canada to fish, hunt etc. ie. spend money ! Hopefully sooner than later it will open...if Trudeau takes a Math course in the meantime.

First off we are not the states. What works for you can't work for us for oh so many reasons. I'd go into it but it would get political. People here generally understand this is the way it had to be and did the right thing. Everyone here wants life back to normal. Yesterday phase one started. Everybody was out and about. No one can get in front of this thing and stop it mainly because we paid the price and pandemic wise things look great going forward...better then it does for the states.

Everybody has sacrificed, some with their lives. Many will come out of this not the same. Be patient, it's coming sooner then you think.

Passed over border, going from Quebec to Ontario, this morning about 10:00 am


QPP not there, OPP waved me on, did not stop.

I sure hope the closures end on June 16

Ontario & Quebec just announced the border patrols will stop - so open provincial borders in the next couple of days is a great sign!!

Thx

Agreed!  Did a little online ordering this past weekend and treated myself to handful of new lures….just in case can get up there this year.  Will get used eventually regardless.
Well deserved I believe.  After last year nixed and the uncertainty of this year.

Great news, Greg. I'm happy for our Canadian members. PLEASE post trip reports so those of us in the U.S. can keep our dreams of Kipawa alive. I'm still hoping for an opening for August. Good luck everyone! My son and I rescheduled our trip to the TBL Outpost to August 28th. I'm hopeful.

As with anything in life, there has to be a ying to every yang...

Progress, but nothing imminent and 'closure will likely be extended'.

How can they say the same measures are in place at the Mexican Border??? Thousands come across every day and they do NOTHING to stop it. This whole thing with Canada is purely political.

Well...we’ll know something soon. The optimist in me says, “Pack your bags baby...time to get this on!”. We’ll find out soon enough....
