    Some of you may have heard about some changes that affect airline passengers returning to Canada. They include testing and quarantine. Now Trudeau is going to make returning passengers quarantine in a hotel room. But on your own nickel. Next he is going to tackle land borders. Rumors are that testing is going to be required for all persons crossing at land borders. That would include truck drivers . Can you imagine the chaos at the bridges in Ontario?

    Won’t happen. Trade will shut down. Both economies will implode.

    That is what I thought but something is happening to make the gov. even consider this. I think the scientists are worried about the new strains and they think it will be out of control. The Trudeau gov. is even talking about no flights out of the country. This is not allowed under the constitution but there is an emergency act that can override the constitution
    I know this all sounds like a b grade movie but it is real. Canada,zmrxico and the USA are meeting to discuss what measures to take and how they will be implemented. The USA is implementing testing and quarantine for all flights to the USA.

    Ever wonder why some counties have had great success in controlling the spread of the virus? New Zealand is one example Australia would be another as all arrivals must quarantine for a minimum of 14 days in a approved hotel usually near the airport the virus can only spread when infected people move about, no movement no spread its that simple so good on Mr Trudeau for implementing some proven tactics to fight the spread of the virus.

    They kept the airports open .. :banghead:

    If you listen to the professionals within the field of study for pandemics, the number one issue they brought up to raise was how open our world is today. How, almost any person can grab a ticket and fly wherever. Airports are super-spreader centers. Yet, most governments chose to ignore this, and we're having a giant cluster F U C K of an issue now with mutated strains.

    All that noise about staying home and staying put, meanwhile they've allowed the backdoors open through all the airports. All it takes is a few people for a mass spread. I'm not even sure what dimension I'm living in anymore, where no one has a clue or a half a brain to instigate appropriate measures.

    But no, they won't force people into hotels on their buck, you're watching fake news.

    One of my us drivers pulled me into a trailer last night, thought I was in for a fight. He quietly asked me about the news reports that there are 75,000 Chinese military on the Canadian and Mexican borders, ready to invade, and covid was the first strike. And he was dead serious too.

    LMFAO. Even if it were true, you'd need a lot more that 75,000 troops. Be like a mosquito biting an elephant.

    My info came from cbc. Not fake. Freelancer who is deputy pm is pushing for the hotel quarantine and land border testing. But the quarantine hS nothing to do with drivers. Unless you test positive. What would they do? Your load has to be delivered and asap. Ut goverments never allow for unseen consequences. Chaos!!!
