“#Team Biden’s bizarre ‘Blame Canada’ border slap<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

Poor Canada: It gets no respect even from the Biden administration, which just dissed it in the name of fighting COVID.<\/p>\n

Mere days after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced that Canada\u2019s borders will open to fully vaccinated Americans on Aug. 9, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas answered by extending <\/em>the US\u00a0ban on nonessential land travel<\/a> from Canada until at least Aug. 21.<\/p>\n

Why?<\/p>\n

The notification posted to the Federal Register<\/a> claims that \u201cthe risk of continued transmission and spread of the virus associated with COVID-19 between the United States and Canada poses an ongoing \u2018specific threat to human life or national interest.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Huh? Canada (after a rocky start because it didn\u2019t do as wise a job of advance-buying vaccines as the Trump administration) is now better-vaxxed than we are \u2014 52.6 percent fully jabbed to just 48.7 percent of the total US population, and 69 percent with at least one dose to our 56 percent. (Trudeau expects to hit 80 percent fully vaxxed by month\u2019s end.)<\/p>\n

And Ontario, the province bordering New York, is at 64 percent fully vaxxed.<\/p>\n

That matters because Upstate will now miss out on some much-needed tourism. And Team Biden\u2019s slap puts needless stress on separated families and businesses all along the world\u2019s longest international border.<\/p>\n

Rep. Brian Higgins<\/a> (D-NY), whose district includes popular tourist areas like Buffalo and Niagara Falls, complains that Mayorkas\u2019 \u201cillogical,\u201d \u201ccounterproductive\u201d and \u201ccompletely unnecessary\u201d move \u201charms economic recovery and hurts families.\u201d Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer<\/a> agreed that it could jeopardize upstate\u2019s \u201calready tenuous recovery.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trudeau cited Canada\u2019s \u201cunique bond\u201d with the United States, \u201cespecially between border communities,\u201d as reason to open to Americans nearly a full month before the rest of the world. Team Biden plainly doesn\u2019t feel the same love.<\/p>\n

The bigger mystery: Why not focus US restrictions on the border that\u2019s actually in crisis?\n <\/p><\/div>\n
