I don't run International.. just 48 states.. nice try. :lol:

Nice try? I'm being serious. You want quarantine, a lot goods move between the US and Canada. How long should the truck drivers have to be quarantined before crossing the border?

It's not a feasible solution.

you'd like to see all international travelers quarantined? For how long? For what illnesses? Would it apply to dual citizens traveling back and forth? or only if you go to the 'wrong' countries?

Well countries that are know to have H5N1, or higher than normal HIV/AIDs.. or other deadly diseases.. people should be held.. or required to go to a Hospital and tested..

You can contract AIDs and tests can show if you have been infected immediately.. tests come back in 48 hrs.

Travel between the USA and Canada no.. I think there should be no border..

China, well pretty much any Asian country, South America and Central America for example.

High HIV rates? Which country has the highest rates in the western world?

I call bull. I think you're strictly anti-immigration and grasping at straws to justify it, and on the quarantine rant just to try to look like there's some actual logic to your stance. A Canadian citizen died after traveling, and your first reaction is to rant about immigration, not quarantines.

The 2009 pandemic flu virus showed up in the US one month before the first confirmed case in Canada.

Here, sleep tight.

LOL ranting about myself, amusing..

I was an immigrant and had to get blood tests for AIDs and other diseases..

Far from anti-Immigration, I like to see immigration from Mexico into the USA.. it's what keeps the economy going here.. it's why our food prices are so cheap, construction and other manufacturing industries..

However, I honestly think Canada's immigration is far to easy and it needs to change... and it has since Harper has come to power.. but it needs more changes and harmonization with the USA's policies.

Immigration is good, but not when it does not protect the current residence of that country..

My rant was not against Immigrants, it was more to do with lacks "LIBERAL" policies that allow for safe guards to be over looked.

I sleep fine. I don't worry about closing the border without due cause.

Do you even get how ridiculous this all sounds given your opening statements regarding her death?

"This is not a disease that's transmitted between humans so unless you were in the infected in the area and were in contact with an infected bird you are not going to get this illness," Dr. Theresa Tam of Health Canada said.

Open door immigration policy now biting you in the *** "eh?"

Now Canadian's get to die for the Liberals open door immigration policies...


I fail to see how a conclusion can be drawn from a single case. Millions of people fly back and forth between N.A. and Asia. -:)
