A body was found in a barrel in the middle of the street in New Jersey last week. It's being reported she's an escort. https://nypost.com/2021/08/19/escorts-body-found-stuffed-in-barrel-in-nj-was-carted-out-of-wall-street-building/

Just to provide background why I’m “paranoid.” Some of us are enrolled in NEXUS which has a zero tolerance policy for violating CBP/CBSA rules especially if caught making a false declaration. I don’t mind being denied entry. I do mind being banned from NEXUS/Global Entry and possibly even...

They will let you drive back because you are allow to leave Canada even under quarantine and “Foreign nationals with symptoms will not be allowed to enter Canada.” Just want to specify that this applies to land port of entry by private vehicle. I don’t think airlines will fly a passenger to US...

I guess I’m not being clear. If you follow the last several posts from me, you will find that the discussion is about crossing via land not air. You MUST provide a suitable quarantine plan into ArriveCAN even if vaccinated. ArriveCAN declaration requires a Canadian address as a place of...

Book a “quarantine plan” 14 day stay at a hotel with a 6PM day of arrival cancellation. Plan on getting to the border by 4 or 5pm and then cancel this reservation once you are admitted or return to US. According to CBSA site, most NEXUS lanes are not open including Saint-Bernard-de-Lacolle...

Please report how it goes. Seems like border crossing times are minimal. Aug 9 (Day 1) delays were limited to just that day.

I did consider driving up this or next week but got a trip to Hawaii in two week so the last thing I need is to pickup Covid during a session. May come up in September/October depending on how this Quebec vaccine passport plays out with CDC cards.

Conversion rate is determined by the network (typically MasterCard/VISA) not the ATM operator unless you decide to accept the conversion (if shown) at time of withdrawal (dynamic currency conversion/DCC). I’ve only seen CIBC ATMs offer DCC.

For those who have been hobbying…does mask stay on during the session? Sounds like vaccinated can be carriers for delta variant. Don’t need to bring it home and go thru contact tracing.

Not GF used to be SP. Wife is allegedly a SP. https://news.google.com/articles/CAIiEPACA5ZTq_cbhj97p73kc7cqGQgEKhAIACoHCAow1feUCzCqy6oDMPPizQY?hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US%3Aen

Pretty much any country that accept testing accept PCR like this one including Schengen, Canada and US. Apparently I don’t think any country is concern that name on test matches person who provided sample other than Hawaii because in practice this is impossible to enforce; testing partners to...

It's been reported that this $40USD PCR at home PCR test is acceptable for travel. Take sample at home (no virtual monitoring), ship if off via next day UPS and get results within 24 hours. In theory, results should be available 2 business days from dropping off sample...

Technically the quarantine plan is a hotel booking for 14 days but Canada is not preventing departures. For practical purposes, the quarantine plan for a land crossing will be useless as driver will just turn around back to US. It's tricky if departure by air as airlines may not board a flight...

Here are stats on post-arrival positive rate. Airport positive rates (3 in 1,000) are a bit higher than Land (1 in 1,000) as Air will contain travelers from all countries. Overall positive arrival rates are low...

Plattsburgh (PBG) is an as well alternative but not as much air service as BTV. Based on your prior posts, I take it you're in the Northeast. I don't see this being a if driving. CDC test requirement does not apply to land crossing. Worst case is you have to do a U turn and drive back into...

If you gotta ask, you're should not be hobbying. This was true way before COVID.

Yes US requirement is 3-day (not 72 hour). Depending on where you live (and how much you want to spend), rapid NAAT are available. So you could take a test on Tuesday morning, hop on a flight right after and meet up with providers from Tuesday afternoon to Friday afternoon and hop on an early...

Canada may subject you to random post-arrival testing. Everyone needs a pre-arrival test within 72 hours prior to departure (if by air) or arrival at land border. CDC card would very likely be acceptable at face value similar to what European countries and Hawaii have done. There's no other...

Starting August 9 for fully vaccinated Americans. Pre arrival testing required.

This risk I see is if traveler test positive, they can’t fly back into US until testing negative. So a one week trip to Montreal can turn into a 2-3 week trip. There are worst places to get stuck but it could mean extra weeks of hotels. For those of us living near the border, driving could...
