I'm trying to get home to Halifax for Christmas but there's no way I'm self-quarantining the entire time.

vrax: My friend lives up in Victoria and she said that it's common to report Americans right now.  Any license plates and people with obvious accents get called in.  And rightly so.

smileyphase: BIPOC

WelldeadLink: "That pattern prompted the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) to remind people about the ban on non-essential travel before the Labour Day weekend - traditionally a busy time for cross-border visits."

Story published on the Sunday of that weekend.
