A Canadian snowbird who just drove from Florida to Prince Edward Island says he is now driving to Ontario to quarantine with relatives after being turned away by officials at the Confederation Bridge because of COVID-19 restrictions. He showed officials that, as well as the taxes he paid last year on his P.E.I. from the Confederation Bridge must stop at a COVID-19 checkpoint, where officials ask if they have a self-isolation plan and gather contact information. "I'm a snowbird, I should be treated like a snowbird not like a cottager. Travellers are being asked about their reasons for coming to P.E.I., and those not on the list of essential travellers are turned around.
