Yes, we don't want needless exposure, & we DO NOT want our numbers to go up because of people who insist on going through our provinces!!! We're already angry with the US & it's mess as it is.

The US numbers are staggering, & we don't want people from the US risking us!

Alaska's, & Saskatchewan's numbers are also going up, as are BC's. Alberta has a problem too.

@Lilac-Jade As at the last News Report I heard the Covid Death Toll in the U.S. is over a quarter of the Death Toll of the ENTIRE world and still climbing.
So, IF were Canada I'd most definitely be saying to Americans "Piss off, we do NOT want you crossing OUR Borders and infecting OUR people."

@Triphid The Western Canadian border is not the same threat as the Southern border. They know this.

@barjoe West, East, North or South the risks from Covid-19 are STILL the same, VIRUSES do NOT respect either National Borders, Nationalities, etc, etc, in case you were unaware of that fact.

@barjoe Here in BC, we have Washington state south of us, & Alaska northwest of us to worry about.

@Triphid Look at a map. Now be aware that these are very remote areas. This is a huge border with no traffic. Keeping it closed doesn't affect very many people. Basically commercial traffic for trade. It's in Arctic Region. I don't live there. It doesn't affect me It affects commercial interests in Northwest, Yukon and Alaska.

@Lilac-Jade I agree. The southern border is a bigger threat. I was just trying to explain that to someone from down under. I don't blame Canada. They're doing a great job.

@barjoe "Look at a map?"
FFS, what do you think I've was doing for all the years I was a Licensed Amateur Radio Operator, scratching my arse with someone elses fingers?
Hey, FYI there ARE sea-lanes available from the U.S. to Alaska you know.

@Triphid I was responding to you saying West East North or South. No offense intended

@barjoe Oh dear, are you, perhaps, admiiting to having a " Foot in mouth" episode here?
