U.S. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is calling on the Biden administration to release a detailed plan explaining what rules and health-related benchmarks will guide the reopening of the Canada-U.S. border to non-essential travel, in an effort to provide clarity 'to a confusing and frustrating process.'

of a new annual tax that would apply to vacant or underused property in Canada that’s owned by foreign investors.

The U.S.-Canadian border first closed to non-essential travel on March 20, 2020 to prevent the spread of COVID-19. The border has remained closed since, with officials on both sides remaining tight lipped about plans to reopen the border. Member of Canada’s Conservative Party also have raised concerns about why public health tools, such as rapid tests, have not been positioned as solutions to ease border restrictions.

It’s easy... when folks have had two vaccines and have a vaccine passport.

I am usually very polite but “Tell Him to pound salt”.

Tell them we're building a wall

Could have stopped ALL international flights at the very beginning of covid.

Two shots to cross! How simple is that. The meme possibilities are endless :-).

How about 2022 sometime...is that detailed enough?

It’s confusing do cons want the border open or closed? They scream open the American border then cry about how covid is coming in from international flights and airports need to close.

can't happen, as our Government is inept and our Prime Minister doesn't care about Canadians. We appreciate the Vaccines that our big brother USA has been sending us to help though tyvm

When I lost my job I thought I've lost it all....with the little cash of $2000 brendaenright09 she turn that into $20,000 in just 7 days he may not know it but he really save my life Brendaenright09

Good luck with that we don’t even have a detailed plan how to reopen Toronto yet let alone the boarder

We’ll let you know when we are ready. We need to get our house in order first.

It’s not the time to be discussing opening borders. Covid is in the midst of an aggressive third wave. Political actions to force a timeline is irresponsible and immoral. Business and visitation will resume when it is logically safe to do so.

When we're all vaccinated, tell them to send more vaccines 😀

I dont think peopke under stand that once you tell americans they can they will come doing so thinking we are vaxed and restriction are gone so best not open till both

Vaccinated dual citizens with property in Canada should be allowed when more Canadians are vaccinated

I listened to his announcement at the Rainbow bridge live. His concerns included US cottage owners. He failed to mention the stats for vaccinations directly across the border. Here they are from earlier this week. Less than 37% with first shots and less than 3% fully vaccinated!!

Border needs to stay closed! When it does reopen folks crossing need to have vaccine passport. My dad, 92 hasn’t seen my brother, who lives in the US, for over 15 months. We would love to see him but until more folks are vaccinated he needs to stay away. It’s that easy.

Here's the details COVID +34.5 million vaccinated Canadians (or those who chose to be) = open border. Easy peasy.

Only vaccinated persons to be able to cross. Canada needs more of their own to be vaccinated before allowing outsiders in.

Here's the plan: no thank you. COVID19 cdnpoli

Is it just me or have Canadians lost some tolerance for our neighbours to the South? It has always been a love/hate relationship between countries but it feels different now.

Yes. Open the border.

Not now.

Nah.

Trudeau has no clue. Makes it up as he goes along.

WE'RE BUSY

Give Canada more vaccines. It’s obvious you have more than enough to share. 🤷‍♂️

Not until 2023

Not until every sector of the province is back to pre covid normal before that should even be discussed

Who cares what he wants? Keep it closed until all Canadians are vaccinated! We know half the population in the states won't be. I hate we can't go south. I miss my friends. And just visiting. But do not open it

Honestly I'm all for proof of vacation for cross border travel. This also includes to across seas. You have to have certain vacations for certain countries anyways so why not this one?

After Democrats shut down the XL Pipeline.... pucker up Canada.

Please let it include a way to keep Trump lovers out. We have enough of them up here in the north already!! Micro chip them maybe 🤣😂🤣

Not until the pandemic is under control. We, in Canada, have enough issues without importing theirs.
