Canada is open - Whistler here we come

The U.S.-Canada border opened on Monday to Americans who are fully vaccinated against COVID-19 — and business was brisk.

In Blaine, Wash., the border crossing into Canada saw a lineup for the first time since spring of 2020. If you plan to go soon yourself, you’ll need a negative COVID test within 72 hours of travel in addition to proof of vaccination.

You’ll find information on how to travel into Canada here .

We plan to make the trip north soon. Our first destination? The resort town of Whistler, British Columbia, which is enjoying its summer season.
