PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND REFUSED US! | Traveling to P.E.I. without PEI Pass

[@RCountryMusic]

I live in PEI and that is unbelievable how they treat their tourists

[@theRTWguys]

Is it getting better? Do we still need PEI Pass to enter?

[@sunrunnerpei]

@@theRTWguys Not any longer, there are no more COVID restrictions when entering by land.

[@Cam-et9xs]

How did u not know about the pass lol?

[@theRTWguys]

Well - we were just crossing from Maine a few days prior to

[@greatfallskam]

I am planning to follow in your foot steps in couple of weeks. I plan to enter Canada from the St. Stephens 3rd Bridge Border crossing. I live 1,000 miles away. So I'll need at least 2-3 days to cross border. I know the Canadian border guidelines require PCR / Molecular testing within 72 hours of the date you apply for ( date of entry ). I am a little nervous when and where to get my PCR test. I know CVS offers PCR testing. But, they cannot guarantee result turn around. The average is 1-2 days. How did you guys coordinate testing with entry date? I have firm reservations for lodging once I get into Canada. Also did you show the CVS pharmacy Canada's accepted list of COVID test? Thanks.

[@theRTWguys]

Did you manage to get across? Let us know if you have any other questions, if still needed -

[@greatfallskam]

@@theRTWguys Not yet. I plan to cross on Sunday, September 12. I made a PCR test at my local CVS pharmacy on Sept. 10. I plan to overnight in Saint John on Sunday 12th and then take ferry to Digby Monday Sept. 13. Oh, apparently if you change your entry date into Nova Scotia, you have to cancel your Safe Check-in online form and do another one. Ahhh!!!

[@theRTWguys]

@@greatfallskam we did a travel form for Nova Scotia once and we never had to redo our forms - we've crossed into NS twice so far. Good luck with your journey

[@rickydow3065]

That's why Prince Edward Island was the safest place in the world at the time or at least one of the safest places

[@theRTWguys]

All the Maritime provinces were doing a great job isolating themselves during COVID-19, that's for sure.

[@greatfallskam]

Hi RTW guys. Quick question. I assume you got your PCR/NAAT test for enter into Canada a few days prior to crossing border. Does border crossing agent need to see that? Do you have to print the negative results , show proof by email on your iPhone, and how the heck do your print results while on the road from your phone?

[@theRTWguys]

You will need to apply for PEI Pass, which you can upload your vaccination information onto. That becomes the test results/vaccination proof, which what you need to enter PEI without quarantine.

[@greatfallskam]

Oh WOW ! I didn't know PEI has its own COVID rules. Does Nova Scotia have any different rules than what's published on the Canada Border entry website? I am trying to plan a moto trip in September.

[@theRTWguys]

Yes they do. You will need to fill out their travel form online. Each province has its own Covid rules and restrictions.

[@greatfallskam]

Thanks for the heads up. I'll find NS guidelines and review them. Thank you sirs.

[@theRTWguys]

NS and NB forms are easy to complete.

[@userdeletedvd1d455]

I live in Prince Edward Island 4:30 Yeah, it’s pretty long. A few times people hit the barrier and drove off the bridge accidentally. I remember one time we were going to Halifax and crossed that bridge and a car like 7 cars ahead of us slipped basically and hit the barrier and went off the bridge. Luckily they were okay. (Edited again lol) OH YEAH! My great grandfather who was in WWII helped build the bridge!

[@theRTWguys]

Yikes - that could have been a really bad accident.

No cars have ever "drove off the bridge" in an accident. There have been collisions (very few) but no vehicles have ever went over the barriers.

If you're vaccinated, which you should, then it won't be difficult to get a PEI Pass. It is free and easy to get.

Thanks for not freaking out and making a show of our rules, we have managed to keep the covid cases at a very low rate so its working.

Agreed 💯

I agree completely! I saw the video title and was expecting a different result. Our rules were strict but they helped. I sure hope you can come back and visit us sometime now that the restrictions have lifted!

[@theRTWguys]

We didn't take the time to completely understand the rules. And that's ok. Those rules have protected PEI well during the pandemic. Of only the US were as strict,maybe we wouldn't have as many deaths down there. Looking forward to visiting when we can. Enjoy your trip!0

If taken literally it would seem extreme but compared to our modern day I feel not so. If individuals are held hostage on an island against their will unless complying with prescribe benefits and privileges from a state run by oligarchs. The one thing that didn’t change from then and now is people not standing together to protect their own will and their ability to travel freely unmolested by right. Just an objective inherent observation...

​@@theRTWguys its really not your fault. If something I learned living in PEI for 3 years (I'm mexican) is this culture they have for exclusion, as if the island was some kind of little paradise where everything is perfect but as soon as you claim something is wrong they treat you different, even when it's true. This measures are not "world class", the government is just scared AF of being so inefficient in creating new and better spaces for health, attracting new doctors or even letting international professionals to do the work.
