BORDER WASTE

Re. Bid bon voyage to ArriveCan travel requirement, June 15:

Much has been said about testing for COVID-19, the various vaccines available and how many shots one should get. I have followed the government guidelines and it has got me to the following point.

I hold a Nexus card and am fully vaccinated. All of this information is held in the mandated NavCan app. On June 14, I spent under 20 minutes in Niagara Falls, N.Y. I had no difficulty getting into the States. I crossed and returned. Even though I am supposed to be a "trusted traveller," fully vaccinated I was randomly selected for a mandatory test for COVID.

The CBSA officer was aware I was away for 20 minutes and what my purpose was in the U.S. He asked no questions about my potential to have caught COVID in the previous 20 minutes. He decided to be a good functionary and handed me the test kit.

What a waste of taxpayer money to pay a lab to administer a test under these circumstances! The federal government has lost its focus! help.

We are in desperate need of foster homes for many kittens and cats.

What is involved with being a foster? A loving, caring person or family with a spare room.

NOTL Cats Rescue will supply everything needed to foster - food, litter and litter boxes, scratch posts, toys, etc.

If you can help, please contact: notlcatrescue@hotmail.com or

message us on NOTL Cats Facebook.

We will be happy to answer any questions regarding

cat care as a foster.

I am moved to tears looking at the picture of Earl Clapp and his wee granddaughter. The love shines through!

It impels me to ask: How can a charge of vehicular manslaughter be sufficient for Jason Lusted?

My heart goes out to Mrs. Clapp and family. Justice

is definitely not served with this conviction and August sentencing. Lives are forever changed, and I doubt memories of this tragedy will ever fade. Not only has Earl died, but his family's future has been forever overshadowed with the horror of his passing.

My thoughts are with Earl's loved ones.
