I can't find 105k new cases in USA. Where did you get that information? - Boon_DockerExplorer III

Yes, I would say Canada has good control of this virus. Canada has a total of 105,000 confirmed cases since this pandemic started. The US had 105,000 new cases confirmed in just one day, today.
So Canada, please keep the border closed. - garyhauptExplorergmckenzie...as I am sure you know, but for others...the lock-down that is now lifting in stages has spawned a tidal wave of RV purchases and a drive into the hinterlands. RV sales have skyrocketed...anything that 'appears' to be usable as a camping method...tents, tarps, old vans...new anything...huge debt being incurred.
Any scrap of ground they can camp on is taken between Vancouver and probably Prince George. If a person has field with a pond? man...they could almost retire.

Good to see.
Funny thing is, it hasn't opened up any camping spots. Be a different crowd, I guess, but just as full. - MDKMDKExplorerWhat about Canadian Full Timers? Similar problems to snowbirds?
Canada's winters aren't usually hospitable to many of our rigs. - SideHillSoupExplorerSounds like the Okanogan Valley and Vancouver Island will be busy this winter. Buddy who has been a snowbird for the last 22 years has ordered a cover for his 5th wheel, he says his rig doesn’t like the cold.
I live with in 40 minutes of the Washington State boarder, lots of people up here have summer cabins south of the 49th that they would love to get to, but not one of them that I have talked to wants the boarder open until it is safe to travel, in either direction.
We lost out on a cruise to the South Pacific last March ( 6 days before sailing all cruises Shut down) we lost thousands of dollars, that we are still trying to get that back, however we are safe at home and money isn’t everything,
Today are camping out in the bush about 10 kms up a Forrest service road, the rain has stopped, now its time to go out for ride on our side x side.
Be kind, be calm, be safe ( Dr. Bonnie Henry)

Agree, and since it's not going away any time soon, time to start planning options for the winter get away?
Or, not?
The linked article suggests that the "essential" travelers aren't subject to the Quarantine Act, which seems a bit risky. Kinda like no screening at the airports early on. - garyhauptExplorerAugust 31st....
