Amherst Police say this morning there’s no indication when the Nova Scotia/New Brunswick border will be reopened after it was shutdown yesterday by protesters.
The protesters say they’re frustrated with the province’s decision to open up to all three Atlantic provinces, but requiring anyone entering from New Brunswick to self-isolate.
The move comes after New Brunswick opened its borders to Canadian travelers from outside the Atlantic region without having to self-isolate if they have at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine.
Premier Iain Rankin says the province is treating travelers from New Brunswick differently because it needs to maintain some protection when people enter Nova Scotia from New Brunswick.
