Despite the Canada-U.S. land border closure to non-essential traffic, Canadian snowbirds Bernard Loiselle and Sylvie Charbonneau are on their way to Florida — in their RV. In response, several transport companies have come up with new ways to help snowbirds — and their cars — cross the border. As a commercial transport company, KMC can bring vehicles into the U.S., despite the border restrictions, Couturier said. But this year it has branched out to also transport snowbirds' vehicles from the Vancouver area to U.S. sunbelt states or to closer destinations, such as the Seattle airport. When asked about helping snowbirds go south during the pandemic, McElroy said he's happy to help them escape winter.
