Hundreds of B.C. government staff redeployed as quarantine officers at border crossings


government has quietly redeployed hundreds of its own employees to serve as de-facto quarantine officers at all of British Columbia's international border crossings. The province has mobilized hundreds of its own employees to enforce the federal government's self-isolation orders for returning travellers. The teams are stationed beyond the CBSA checkpoints as the last stop for travellers entering B.C. They're required to fill out a detailed declaration form and verbally present their self-isolation plans to the quarantine officers. The province plans to continue the program as long as the border remains closed to non-essential travel.
