Thanks!...Right on with opening the US/Canadian Border but I am totally surprised how in the last few days the access to the vaccines has multiplied, if it keeps on I would think the 75% HERD Immunity critical point will be reached much much sooner, we have been gone since mid March 2020 and had to pay our lease fees, pay for bushes, weed control, house checker etc., for 2020 and of course couldn't get to Florida....like throwing good money after bad but hoping good news is in the works!

Sorry to be way off topic here, but I feel your pain. I have a daughter, son-in-law and two grandkids that live in Quebec about 15 miles from us and less than 1000 feet from customs. My daughter and grandkids work and/or go to school in NY State, so we see them a few times for a few minutes, but it certainly isn't the same. They also own a house in NY (less than a mile from their home in Quebec) that they haven't been able to work on for a year.

I have a neighbor that owns a camp in Quebec that wasn't able to use at all last summer. Luckily he has neighbors that mowed the lawn and looked after it, but it still makes it tough.

I am ready for the border to reopen !

Thanks everyone for their replies.
...I guess it was my Aeroplan Visa that somehow would not go thru I think because of the ZIP/Postal Code issue....have no idea why but I tried another TD Card and it went thru

Thanks for the responses....Ernie

I am glad it worked out and you didn't lose your minutes.

They let me put mine on hold. I'll update it if we can travel this winter.

If Trudeau was not involved the border would be open in a month
I bet the USA will open their border soon. But then Trudrau would want to fine Canadians that cross

A $5000 fine for unnecessary travel during the pandemic sounds about right.
