If you have proof...

[garyhaupt]

That you have been fully vaccinated (both jabs) I would bet that it is not long now before the border will be open for non-Canadians to cross into Canada. Already Canadians with that proof can return, so stands to reason it will become common for anyone that has the needed docs, to enter.

Good luck with that.

watch how you word that, the travel restriction isn't lifted, the requirment for fully vacanated canadian to sell isolate in a goverment aproved hotel when they return home is changed, they still have to have a covid test prior to and a few days after returning home and they have to isolate till the results of the second test come back but they can do it at home.

That seems nothing more than a way to make political statement, without looking like a political statement.

Without a passport you weren’t getting into Canada since 2004, regardless of a pandemic. That is a result of the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative, an American action. Nothing to do with any Canadian decisions.

Azdryheat,

If you left USA with no passport--you would not be allowed back. As far as entering Canada, eventually these restrictions may be dropped--and perhaps sooner than I personally think is safe.

We have enough anti-vaxxers in Canuckland already. :B

Thanks, Canada, but no thanks.

JaxDad,

Fully vaccinated in my case, two doses of Pfizer. In my best friends case, two doses of Moderna.

There is one fly in the ointment. I can get into Canada, because I'm a citizen. Or if you have permanent resident status.

But if you are American.....too bad, so sad.

I think the big caveat in that will be “fully vaccinated”. By who’s standards?

It’s already becoming a sore spot (pardon the pun) in the Toronto area amongst many people who (wisely IMHO) took the advise of getting the first available shot and that shot was an AstraZeneca shot. Now they are beginning to realize that if a particular country, such as the US, doesn’t recognize the AZ vaccine they may need a THIRD shot in order to qualify as ‘fully vaccinated’.

Of course with the rapid spread of the Delta Variant, and now the Delta Plus Variant this whole conversation may be totally moot.

Don't worry Biscuit, you don't have to print it at home, just find a government crook. About 15 years ago a nice lady at the DMV in Maryland was selling CDL's for $300.00. They were real of course and had full backup since she entered the data into the computers. The guys that got them couldn't drive a truck if their life depended on it. It only took Maryland two years to arrest her after we reported something funny, with truck drivers that did not have a clue.

The old ways are best, or we could just get the free shot(s).

It has already been done. The international agreements are in place from Wikipedia:

"The International Certificate of Vaccination or Prophylaxis (ICVP), also known as the Carte Jaune or Yellow Card, is an official vaccination report created by the World Health Organization (WHO). As a travel document, it is a kind of medical passport that is recognised internationally and may be required for entry to certain countries where there are increased health risks for travellers."

I do know this is for Yellow Fever, others have stated it used to be used to get into and out of Europe and other places for smallpox.

I had mine filled in when I got the shots. The folks at the center said I was far from the only one.

Just build on the existing system. Yellow fever has killed a lot more people than covid, of course it has been around a lot longer. Walter Reed has a famous hospital named for him, due to his work on Yellow Fever.

If they want proof, what if we offer them some 100 Proof? "Here's all my proof in this bottle, sir. To your health!" 😄 Just kidding.

Unvaccinated people crossing the Canadian border should only (potentially) affect Canadian people who have also not be vaccinated. Canada should focus on getting their people vaccinated, as should the US. At this point in time ANYONE who want a vaccine shot(s) can get one and here in the US at no cost. If you have not had the vaccine and you get sick from Covid, that’s on you.
