Border Closure Extension


 

From CBC:

The Canada-U.S. border will remain closed for another 30 days.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced the deal to extend the closure during his daily news conference on Tuesday.

Both countries reached an agreement in March to temporarily close the border to non-essential travel — meaning no recreational visits — while keeping it open to commercial traffic and essential workers who cross for work.

That agreement?was extended in April by 30 days and it was set to expire on May 21.

Hi to you all,

NZ is now at Level 2 which allows us to travel about the country again, limited social get togethers, but no mention? of international travel yet. The first signs of allowing travel to and from Australia and some of the Pacific Islands are there, but no timetable. My guess is this may happen within two months but that is my guess only. At this time I have flagged any hope of getting to US or Canada this year, sadly as I was looking forward to meet you all again and have an adventure.

Otherwise I am well and keeping reasonably busy.

?

Keep safe and well

Peter

Sorry you won't be with us this year.? I'm unsure at this point if Barbara and?I will be able to do the Portland to Boston flight on September 2.? I expect the US/New Brunswick border entry to be open by then, but the cross-country air is more dependent on how the virus declines.

I'm reading the news from NB and PEI. They are handling the coronavirus in a reasonable manner, IMHO. They are re-opening some business now. Most festivals have been canceled. Massachusetts is still?increasing...Maine is not deeply affected an what they have is declining.

Maybe we need to do a ZOOM meeting on or after June 1 to discuss what we each think we should do.? What does everyone think?

Hi Peter,

Glad that you are doing well. That's the important thing.?

The COVID 19 problem continues to cause havoc with travel, restrictions, food supply, etc. Every sports car, ham radio, and proposed travel that I've had on my calendar since February has been canceled. Some have been rescheduled for 2021 but most have been deleted. I certainly understand why the events are gone, and I respect the decision, but it still saddens me. The only thing left on my calendar is the PEI trip and I feel it will fall victim of common sense, and the lack of a vaccine. All 4 of the PEI operators are 70+. I'm 76 and Ev is two years older. And that puts us into the very high risk category. By the end of the month we should discuss our options and decide if we should push on, or postpone the trip to 2021.

We are getting some rain that you could probably use. Nancy and I took the dogs to the river today for a nice swim and ball retriever excercises. Both Kenai and MacKenzie love it. Their antics make us both laugh. A robin has an active nest in the tree by the deck.

More soon......Joe?

Good morning all (very early GM to you, Peter),
Sorry to hear you won’t be making the trek, but understandable and not unexpected.

Glad all are doing well, all things considered. I think the adage of April showers bring May flowers has become: “May showers bring mud and misery”. We are getting more rain than needed, scattered T’storms for most of the last week and continuing on through all of next week as well.

I still may try to sneak in a few hours with the KX2 and a new antenna or two sometime next week (in between the raindrops) since Tennessee has opened up most of the State Parks and some of the Nat’l Park System has reopened in a limited fashion.

Like Joe, my calendar has gotten very sparsely populated, with only medical appointments and such listed. Club Field Day will be a non-starter, for me at least. If the WX breaks by the end of June, I’ll go do a portable/battery/solar effort somewhere in the area.

I agree we should have a discussion in early June. 1 & 2 wide open, Wednesday the 3rd in the afternoon probably OK too. Thursday I’m not sure about yet.
