As a Canadian though we have to test to get to SXM, test to return home and then quarantine for 14 days. So ....... many do not think that the effort is worth it. Our P.M has told us not to leave the country. Several Canadian politicians and others that have left the country to go on vacation are finding that it was not a smart thing to do. Several have had to resign their positions because of their actions. We just need to ride out this pandemic until things improve. Since Pfizer has cut back vaccine shipments, I am thinking that it is going to be sometime until people do get the vaccine.
