EDITORIAL: Chamber Relieved That Canada is Not Now Reimposing Border Restrictions
From the North Country Chamber of Commerce
“While the Canadian Government has been actively considering possible new restrictions on international travel,” notes Garry Douglas, President of the North Country Chamber of Commerce, “we are pleased that for the time being at least, they have decided to advise Canadians not to travel internationally but are not changing current requirements at the land border. Our Canadian friends may still visit for up to 72 hours without a test, and Americans can still visit Canada with use of the ArriveCan app and a PCR test. We welcome this restraint.”
Douglas noted that communications were intense throughout the day today (Wednesday) as the Canadian Government was determining what actions it might take or not take. “We thank our friends and partners on both sides of the border for their continued engagement and advocacy,” says Douglas.
