The Canadian border slammed shut to American tourists at the start of the pandemic in March 2020, and it s likely to stay that way for a while.
That appeared to be the consensus of business leaders on both sides of the border during a virtual panel discussion Wednesday morning.
First, Canadians largely oppose it, said Jean Charest, a former premier of Quebec who serves on a Wilson Center s Canada Institute panel studying how to reopen. A Leger poll taken last month showed 70 percent of Canadian respondents had concerns about reopening the border to Americans.

We’ve done a lot of pivoting in the past year, from going to work and going to school to doing both from home. We’ve pivoted from large gatherings and public events to wearing masks and staying six feet apart and watching much of the world go by on television. Front-line workers had to pivot quickly to 24/7 crisis mode with no work-from-home option.
We are now pivoting again in the United States, from a scenario of vaccine demand exceeding supply to one of supply soon exceeding demand. Those who were frantically scrambling for vaccine appointments a couple of months ago can now find them with relative ease. Meanwhile, the CDC has relaxed its guidance on wearing masks outdoors, mostly for the fully vaccinated, while telling us all to keep masking up in indoor public places and outdoor events with big crowds.
