Requires a Covid antigen test within 72 hours of arrival. While I would like to travel to Vancouver again, we'll keep watching and waiting for a lot longer. The article doesn't say, but I suppose a negative Covid test would be required to re-enter the US.
No decision on whether US would allow Canadians to enter US for non-essential travel.
I can't read the specific article since it is behind a paywall. Just to clarify, for fully-vaccinated Americans to enter they must have had a negative result from an acceptable non-antigen (e.g. PCR) Covid-19 test within 72 hours
prior to arrival at the border. Prior to arrival the test results and your proof of vaccination will need to be entered onto the ArriveCAN app on your smart phone or on the website.
The second Covid-19 test after arrival has been eliminated for fully-vaccinated travellers, along with the compulsory 14-day quarantine, including for returning Canadians. You must have finished your vaccine regimen at least 14 days prior to arrival. Unvaccinated children under the age of 12 may enter if accompanied by a fully-vaccinated parent or guardian.
We are still awaiting word from the White House as to when Canadians will be able to cross into the USA via the land border. Canadians have been able to
fly into the US throughout the pandemic, whether for essential or discretionary travel.
The number of authorized airports for cross-border flights will also be increased from the current four (Montreal, Toronto, Calgary, and Vancouver) to nine (adding Halifax, Quebec City, Ottawa, Winnipeg and Edmonton). This is still way less than pre-pandemic, but it's a start. Unless something changes, the plan is to also allow other, fully-vaccinated, international travellers to enter Canada under similar conditions as of September 7th.
