Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced earlier this week that an agreement with the United States will see the borders between the two countries remain closed to non-essential travellers until July 21.Speaking to reporters at Queen’s Park on Wednesday, Ford said that he is concerned that certain states, especially Minnesota, Michigan and New York that share a border with Ontario, are still struggling with a high number of COVID-19 cases.
“It just wasn't happening before,” Ford said. “I don't want to come across as criticizing because I'm not, they've done a great job, but, man, we've got to do a much better job at the border.” “If they need our help that's fine, we'll put people at the border too and if they aren't doing it, then we're putting people on the border anyway so we'll see how this turns out. Hopefully, we will see the numbers go down by that time.”
Over the last few months Ford has repeatedly stated that he doesn’t want people to cross into Ontario from the United States or neighbouring provinces, saying that residents should "stay home" to prevent the spread of the novel coronaviurs. “We don’t want people right now coming across the border,” Ford said in April. “I love Quebecers, I love people from Manitoba, but stay at home. That goes for the U.S. as well. When this is over we welcome you with open arms.”When asked if the borders should reopen on July 21 as the new agreement extension states, the premier said that reporters should ask him again closer to the date.
Obviously 🙄, when your neighbor has more than 20k confirmed COVID-19 case everyday
How about an IQ test?
