Fog Blog Covid 19 Log: Atlantic Bubble To Wait Until July says Higgs!:
New Brunswick....164 total cases135 recovered and 2 deaths...No new cases today
...Residents in Atlantic Canada will have to wait a bit longer before they can travel between provinces in the region, Premier Blaine Higgs announced Friday.
At a news briefing on COVID-19, Higgs said he expects a travel bubble to open between New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland in early July.
"We are monitoring activities across the country," said Higgs, who has been in discussions with all three other Atlantic premiers.
"We feel the first phase for us is obviously Atlantic Canada."
Higgs said there will also be advanced notice before the borders open up, to give businesses, such as hotels and restaurants, a chance to accommodate the changes. But businesses should start planning now for the Atlantic travel bubble.
