The federal government's plan to reopen the border to fully vaccinated U.S. citizens next month could be complicated by the threat of strike action. This week, more than 8,500 Canada Border Services Agency officers — who have been without a contract since June 2018 — are voting on whether they're willing to walk out. An influx of travellers is expected in the coming weeks as the federal government moves to let fully vaccinated tourists visit Canada again. ET., fully vaccinated U.S. citizens and permanent residents living in that country will be able to visit Canada. The government said it plans to open Canada's borders to fully vaccinated travellers from all other countries on Sept. 7.
