This preliminary step allows for the Government of Canada to fully operationalize the adjusted border measures ahead of September 7, 2021, and recognizes the many close ties between Canadians and Americans,\u201d the release added.<\/p>\n<p>The release went on to stipulate that in addition to having received one of the COVID-19 vaccines approved by the Canadian government, any would-be visitors must also \u201cprovide COVID-19-related information electronically through ArriveCAN (app or web portal) including proof of vaccination prior to arrival in Canada; meet the pre-entry testing requirements; be asymptomatic upon arrival; and have a paper or digital copy of their vaccination documentation in English or French (or certified translation) ready to show a government official on request as evidence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe US-Canada frontier has been shut to non-essential travel, including tourism, since March of 2020,\u201d the <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2021\/07\/19\/canada-letting-fully-vaccinated-americans-in-starting-aug-9\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">New York Post<\/a>&nbsp;reported. \u201cThose who traveled to Canada had been required to undergo a 14-day quarantine upon arrival. Last month, Trudeau lifted the quarantine&nbsp;requirement for fully vaccinated Canadian citizens and permanent residents.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bill Blair, the Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness, said he spoke with Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas regarding plans for the U.S. to begin allowing Canadians into the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Government of Canada recognizes that people have been anxiously awaiting a re-opening of the border to the world,\u201d Blair said. \u201cWe have been fully engaged with our American counterparts given the deep economic and family ties between our two countries. Today\u2019s announcement is another big step in our approach to easing border measures which is guided by facts, scientific evidence and the advice of our public health experts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Regarding Canada\u2019s reopening plan, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said Monday:&nbsp;\u201cWe are continuing to review our travel restrictions. Any decisions about reopening travel will be guided by our public health and medical experts. We take this incredibly seriously. We look and are guided by our own medical experts. I wouldn\u2019t look at it through a reciprocal intention.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>During a recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/dark-days-church-arsonists-plunging-canada-toward-kristallnacht-levels-of-evil-journalist-warns\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">discussion<\/a> with Canadian journalist Ezra Levant about the church arsons spreading across its provinces, Fox News host Tucker Carlson described Canada as \u201ca closed country\u201d and likened it to Albania under the communists.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related<\/strong>: <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/dark-days-church-arsonists-plunging-canada-toward-kristallnacht-levels-of-evil-journalist-warns\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u2018Dark Days\u2019: Church Arsonists Plunging Canada Toward \u2018Kristallnacht\u2019 Levels Of Evil, Journalist Warns<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><i>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
