Thanks for the additional information, that puts a completely different spin on things. It now appears that the communications problem was between Blair's office and the CBSA. 

 

I think everyone can take some of the blame. The 72 hour test exemption does not take effect nationally until November 30 according to the official announcement.

 

Perhaps Blair obtained an earlier exemption for BC and the feds failed to properly communicate such. Perhaps the province misunderstood the announcement. Perhaps the media misquoted the Premier. Any and all are possible, even likely. 😀

If you can’t get groceries in your hometown, you might be willing to go to the US.

What is happening in BC is different than heading for wings in Buffalo or going to Kohl's in Houston

There is a fairly famous leather store in Acton Ontario which about a 90 minute drive from downtown Toronto. It's old radio commercials in the GTA market used the tag line; "It's worth the drive to Acton". For enough listeners I guess it was worth the drive because it's still in business. 

 

For some people it's worth the flight to Huston to get the booster and shop at Kohl's. For others it's worth the drive to Buffalo to get the booster and some wings (and shop at Kohl's! -  I love that store and I own the stock!) . For some people it's worth the drive to Point Roberts to buy milk and gas. For others it's not.  Isn't choice wonderful!

Is it really a choice when the alternative is no food?

LOL, I hadn't realized that the Lower Mainland had suddenly turned into the new North Korea.

But I still have a craving for Duff's wings. 🤔 What to do? What to do?
