B.C. Premier calls for national clampdown on non-essential travel

“We need a pan-Canadian approach to travel. We need to make sure that people in Coquitlam are living under the same rules as people in Chicoutimi. We need to make sure that those who want to come to B.C. must only do so if it is essential for their business or their well-being,” he told reporters Wednesday during a news conference.

Mr. Horgan noted that British Columbians are already facing temporary travel restrictions that were imposed on Nov. 9, and said those limits are likely to be broadened as the province grapples with record-breaking numbers of new cases. On Wednesday, the province once again broke its record of daily new cases, with 762 new infections and 10 additional deaths from COVID-19.

Just weeks ago, the B.C. Hotel Association and Tourism Vancouver Island launched a campaign targeting Canadian “snowbirds” to consider the West Coast as an alternate haven for the winter. The pandemic has devastated B.C.’s tourism and hospitality sector, and while the province promoted “staycations” in the summer, many businesses are struggling to stay afloat.

Maybe Horgan should bail out the airlines if he wants a travel ban in Canada?

Don’t worry no one in Canada wants to go to BC anymore. We all know it is off limits to us. I would worry about your international visitors instead buddy.

BREAKING: Danish mask study that JAMA, NEJM & Lancet REFUSED to publish was just published in Annals of Internal Medicine. In the largest randomized controlled trial to date w/ 6,024 subjects, medical masks were NOT effective protection against infection.

Maybe if he hadn't called an election that was not required to empower himself in the middle of a pandemic.......

By bringing 400.000 immigrants a year?

Who gets to choose what non-essential is?

I call for a national clampdown on powerhungry control-freaks in government.

Yep the Gov. really needs to clamp down on 🇨🇦s that would choose to travel across provinces right now 🙈😬🤡 It won't make more than a tiny difference to 'the spread'

This would be brutal for the aviation industry

never ever underestimate stuff from China
