Re: Covid plan B for Canada staying closed

I haven't looked specifically for Newfoundland to Vancouver. I did look into the cost about eight years ago when we considered trucking from Thunder Bay, Ontario to Vancouver. Back then I was finding...

Re: Covid plan B for Canada staying closed

Indeed. The nature of the social contract has been fodder for endless philosophical debate. The simple point here is that none of us operates 100% as free agents. If we live in a society we must...

Re: Covid plan B for Canada staying closed

Standard in-group, out-group dynamics I think. It's why the small community locals give 'come-from-aways' added scrutiny when you arrive in their town. "You ain't from around here, are ya?" In small...

Re: Covid plan B for Canada staying closed

This is semantics. If you need to fly somewhere for your job, or to reach a dying mother, how much of a choice do you really have? If you drive and hit a red light, how much choice do you really have...

Re: Covid plan B for Canada staying closed

Hpeer has put Newfoundland in excellent perspective. Their choice to bar people like me, and Howard from entering the province has been a major blow to my lifestyle. My boat is my only home, and I...

Re: Covid plan B for Canada staying closed

Such a good plan ... almost :wink:.


The court fight continues over the legality of the NL travel ban. From my selfish perspective, I hope gets struck down. But I really do appreciate their...

Re: Covid plan B for Canada staying closed

Indeed, it's hard to argue with success. The Atlantic Bubble is the safest place to be -- at least from a Covi-19 perspective (even safer than Vermont :wink:).



Hey, don't even joke about...

Re: Covid plan B for Canada staying closed

I'm happy for you :smile:. Unfortunately I've been caught in our internal border closures. My boat is in Newfoundland, but since I'm not a resident of that province, I've been barred from entry. I...

Re: Covid plan B for Canada staying closed

Sooo... just the same as how most political decisions get made :wink:.



I suspect this is the real criteria being used.



Indeed. I have a house sit arranged for most of the winter...

Re: Covid plan B for Canada staying closed

What's missing is the criteria by which these decisions are being made. I'm fine with the border closure, but it's unclear to me what scientific benchmarks are being used.

Is it the overall...

Re: Covid plan B for Canada staying closed

Mark, who are "the Canadians?" I'm a Canadian, and I certainly have not said this. I assume this comes from a credible survey or analysis. Can you link to it?

Tourists everywhere come as a...

Re: Covid plan B for Canada staying closed

We've been seasonal cruising since 2015; approximately 1/2 the year on the boat, and 1/2 doing other stuff. So far we've stuck to Canada (GL & east coast), so we cruise during the warmer months and...
