    PEI just laid out its plan for re-opening. I am surprised at the need to be single vaxxed by June 27th to get in without self isolating. They were wide open to the atlantic bubble last summer and to my knowledge everything was fine case wise.

    1/3 of our group going to the island in July is not vaccinated and plan not to be. Curious what they are going to do now and if this is enough to persuade them to get it. Also I am curious what there plan is for kids that are not of age to get vaccinated. I would doubt that they need to self isolate if the people of age in the family are vaccinated.

    U.S. border to re-open June 22

    Unilateral move by the U.S. government

    I saw this too but how can US borders be opened before Canadian borders? They can't. BC's earliest that they will allow Canada wide recreational travel is July 1st. Hopefully it happens this summer I just can't see it that soon. 
    They can.  The Us can let Canadians in... it is not up to Canada or Trudeau what the US does with its own border.  Canada can reqiuire quarantine upon return...I will be heading to the US to get my second shot...and if I got to quarantine...then it's worth it.  Do not tell me we are all in this together, we are not...
    Ya I missed that huge headline of it being unilateral as I said above. What is your timeline to get your second shot in Canada? Mine is the end of June in New Brunswick. Also we are getting 2 million more Moderna shots by Jun 14th. That is a pretty good chunk and hopefully speeds up the second dose timeline.

    It will flip fast for you I know it will!

    NB plans on removing all restrictions on Aug 2nd. Need 75% of 12 and ups to be double vaxxed. Just over 2 months away from that date and we still do not have 75% single vaxxed but the pace is pretty damn good right now. Hopefully we can keep it up .

    I have my doubts. we have friends coming in from Vancouver early July. no way they're going to lift the quarantine requirements on travel in just over a month. so they won't be able to come. i still have 4 weeks off this summer, which will be awesome, but if I can't fucking do anything with my kids, it's going to be shyte.

    Don't lose hope, Alberta was the armpit of North America just a few weeks ago and it's totally turned around. Active cases have been more than halved here and we went from close to 2,500 cases a day to now around less than 400 and dropping fast 

    The vaccines and more restricted measures will work soon.

    If we can do it here in AB (the Texas of Canada) you guys shouldn't be too far behind.

    It was just announce BC will have 7-9 week interval rather than 12. (A few, like OR, have had their 2nd already.)

    Thats great. My province seems to think it can double vax 75% of the 12 and up group by Aug 2nd.

    thanks. I really hope so. it sucks to be in this position....AGAIN, especially when you see literally everyone else in NA make reopening plans and whatnot.

    You can just move. South Dakota will not make you quarantine. If fact, they won't even allow it!

    It must be said that Moderna has not been a star in terms of meeting their contract. Some of that seems to have been beyond their control but some seems to be just poor management.

    Another inducement for vaccination - concert promoter has differential pricing, with those who are vaccinated getting substantially cheaper ticket prices than those who are not. 

    The unvaccinated fans aren’t being denied, they just have to pay more for the privilege. I am guessing few people would be willing to pay the unvax price but it remains to be seen if this will sway anyone.

    People are going to make some serious money making fake vaccination cards if this becomes a thing.

    Who is playing at this particular show is irrelevant. It’s the concept that’s relevant, in the discussion of inducements.

    That is a pretty small "VIP" section. I hope they get an "unvaxxed and proud" shirt with the ticket.

    Because this thing has been so politicized. And because the "right" thinks it is now okay to be openly hateful and anti-semitic. There are people who think this is okay...

    That would be too easy for her.

    How about we shove her into a cattle car filled with her supporters and drive it around the German countryside for 3 days with no food or water and then drop her at Auschwitz and leave her and her friends there.
    Like they did to my relatives.
