Trudeau announced Friday morning that all returning travellers into the country must go to a government isolation centre where another COVID-19 test will be taken..
An Edmonton pastor may have found out the hard way Thursday night about Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s new travel restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Trudeau announced Friday morning all returning travellers into the country must go to a government isolation centre where another COVID-19 test will be taken. If a passenger tests negative, they will be allowed to return home for a strictly-enforced another 11 days. Those testing positive will be taken to another government facility for the rest of their 14-day quarantine.
Trudeau said it will cost each traveller about $2,000 for the cost of the test, accommodations and food.
The new rules weren’t even announced yet Thursday night, but it appears officials at YYC were ready.
“(My wife Nikki) arrived in Calgary tonight and when she got there she was greeted by a Police Officer and an AHS official,” wrote Pastor Chris Mathis on his Facebook page.
“They rejected her results and told her she needed to go immediately to an isolation facility. She was told if she resisted she would be arrested. She called me, and I immediately asked to talk with the officer. I talked with both a police officer and the AHS official, they reiterated what she had said to me. I asked for the address of where she would be, they said they could not give me the location address as it was confidential.
“I asked for their names, again they would not give me any information or their names. I pushed, I questioned, I tried to fight but they said they would arrest her if she resisted. They would not give me any information on where they were taking my wife.
“She was not allowed to get her vehicle from the airport, she was immediately put in a white van surrounded by police escorts and taken to an unknown facility that is under full surveillance and has security at every entrance and exit. You can imagine I am barely keeping myself together wondering what in the world has happened in our country in what seems to be overnight.”
Earlier, Trudeau also announced all Canadian airlines had agreed to cancel all the flights to sun and sand destinations until the end of April.
“We all agree that now is just not the time to be flying,” Trudeau said.
“By putting in place these tough measures now, we can look forward to a better time when we can all plan those vacations.”
All international passenger flights, including from the U.S., will land at the Vancouver, Toronto, Calgary and Montreal airports.
Global reported the government will be hiring private security firms to help with quarantine checks on returning travellers.
Take a wild guess who will be among the first to violate this “agreement”? .
Why was the plane allowed to land? Was the crew also quarantined or were they flying an hour later to another destination?
The other day, they were only restricting planes flying in from their southern border. Nothing about planes flying in from the any other direction such as from Alaska from the west. How about from the rest of the Commonwealth, huh? He can’t very well turn MEghan and Harry away.
On a bright note, Justin won’t be flying to the US.
Won’t repeat what my husband said he’d do in this situation.
Coming soon to America, illegal detainment of American citizens in FEMA camps ..?
No testing nor quarantine for illegal aliens from Honduras ?
Leftist governments always end up treating it’s citizens with Gestapo/KGB like tactics. The rule of law is totally incompatible with totalitarian regimes.
Never repeat or say anything that could be brought up months, or years from now to haunt your family when we are going through our own cultural revolution.
I’m sure he was only joking. He would never be able to carry it out, since that unfortunate boating accident.
HELL TO THE NO!
That is Nazism and EVIL gov.!!!!!
Coming soon to the US.
I’m surprised they haven’t tried it here yet.
Forced quarantined camps at undisclosed locations is starting to sound a lot like Nazi Germany and their treatment of the Jews.
Don't these idiots know that even after April, the virus will still be there? It is a dead submicroscopic particle. It is not going anywhere.
The quarantine won't accomplish anything except to expose the totalitarianism of the Left. The death rate from the viral disease, covid, is only 0.02%. Hardly a risk.
But the first, knee-jerk reaction of the Left is to lock people up. Next they will start mysteriously "disappearing", with the government denying any knowledge of what is happening.
This is how it always starts.
Coming soon to America, illegal detainment of American citizens in FEMA camps ..?
No testing nor quarantine for illegal aliens from Honduras/Mexico?
Biden and his fellow Democrats are potential Killers via Covid by welcoming millions of illegal Mexicans into America.
The Covid deaths from illegals south of our borders will make Gov Cuomo look like a piker re the grannies he killed in NY nursing homes.
The Latest: Mexico hits another record for COVID-19 cases.
By The Associated Press Jan 15, 2021 Updated Jan 15, 2021
Mexico posted a record spike in coronavirus cases on Friday, with 21,366 newly confirmed infections, about double the daily rate of increase just a week ago. The country also recorded 1,106 more deaths.
It was unclear if the spike was due to the presence of the U.K. virus variant, of which only one case has so far been confirmed in a visiting British citizen.
The country has now seen almost 1.61 million total infections and has seen registered over 139,000 deaths so far in the pandemic.
The country’s extremely low testing rate means that is an under count, and official estimates suggest the real death toll is closer to 195,000. So little testing is done that 8% of all those who got a test later died during recent weeks; normally, only people with severe symptoms are tested.
While Biden and the Democrat Killers are welcoming millions of illegal Mexicans, Canada is doing the following re Covid 19” Mexico:
Canada to quarantine travelers, suspend flights south!
Justin Trudeau said travelers will need quarantine up to 3 days in hotel at their own expense
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Friday announced stricter restrictions on travelers in response to new, likely more contagious variants of the novel coronavirus — including making it mandatory for travelers to quarantine in a hotel at their own expense when they arrive in Canada and suspending airline service to Mexico and all Caribbean destinations until April 30.
Trudeau said in addition to the pre-boarding test Canada already requires, the government will be introducing mandatory PCR testing at the airport for people returning to Canada.
“Travelers will then have to wait for up to three days at an approved hotel for their test results, at their own expense, which is expected to be more than $2,000,” Trudeau said.

Last I heard, returning terrorists are given nicer treatment than that. How do you say “gulag” in French-Canadian?
The Danish citizens who hid Ann Frank were not obeying the law.
The German socialists who captured, then loaded Ann Frank into a box car to a death camp were obeying the law..
Just following orders was the excuse after WW2 by German socialists.
In Australia, what they were doing as of about a month or so ago, was they keep the flight crew in isolation at a hotel overnight or till their departure, with minimal or no contact. Incoming travelers have to be in supervised quarantine for I think two weeks at a cost of like $3,800.
‘Won’t repeat what my husband said he’d do in this situation.’
I guarantee you, if he ever did resist, they would have no compunction whatsoever to kill him...
Of course...we had to live and travel in Canada for 3 plus years...we know a bit about their gestapo types
Will her car be confiscated and towed while she is locked away?
Nice little and non competitive money maker for those involved.
Yeah, no doubt.
