Canada to drop testing requirement for those making short trips into Whatcom County

One Canadian border restriction that will continue to dampen cross-border shopping is the rule for unvaccinated children, said Laurie Trautman, director at Western Washington University’s Border Policy Research Institute. The restrictions currently in place have unvaccinated children required to self-isolation for 14 days upon returning to Canada from the U.S., which would mean missing a significant amount of school or daycare.
