You can provide a positive molecular test as long as you've recovered with no symptoms, and test was taken 10 days before you enter Canada. It's good for 180 days, and exempts you from on arrival testing.   
I was unsure, and clarified with CBSA before making the trip.

			Okay I see, that makes more sense then, post sounded a bit like you just flashed some old test… not that you had covid before and it was documented.

			They literally do not care at the  PR crossing anymore... they don't even ask both ways if you're vaccinated anymore   
I walked across the other day and on the way back heard some clueless girl in a blue X3 getting her ass chewed out for not having done ArriveCAN though, so they still seem to care about that lol

			I crossed  PR on the weekend to pick up my tires.  
I downloaded the app and signed up an account for ArriveCAN earlier in the week. In my head, I thought everything was done but silly me, on the way back the border guard said my Nexus isn't registered. Since I have to go into the office to pay taxes anyway, go get it done in there as well.   
btw, Point Roberts Shell Center is good. 30% off on the storage fee if you fill up 10gal. 
I tried to go as empty as I could, but my car only has 50L tank. So I only managed 8gal and was thinking that sucks.... But the guy there didn't care and gave me the discount anyway.  
I also thought it was $4/tire, but the tires were bundled and shipped as 2 packages. So I was charged $4/package. Thought I would pay $16 USD but left paying $5.60 USD with the 30% discount.            |

			5D had two locations. One in the shitty mall with fuckton of potholes with the grocery store. And the other one right on D street, by the Chevron.

			Busy?   
It was last time things were open... first couple days were crazy lineups... then it kinda settled down.  Weather wasn't very good back then either...   
Common sense - don't go to the border at 11am on a Saturday and expect to breeze through lol

			Damnit…….. at Bellingham Costco. Looking forward to piling up the diced onions on top, between, and below the wiener. Ffs, no onions. I thought for sure US Costcos would have fresh onions. Nope. So disappointed, gulolol. Samples were given out. No sealed bags like up in Canada.    
Trader Joe’s was empty being a weekday. Worker there said it was a nightmare on the weekend.    
Winco was, meh. Picked up some plastic totes from Home Depot. They actually had the 7 gallon size. Perfect size. Home Depot in Canada has the 5 gallon euivalent, but they’re a little too small. Plus, they rarely have them in stock.    
Anyway, going casino hopping. Free play offers. Silver Reef has free night stays during the week, but why? So glad borders are………………. Shit, haven’t crossed back into Canada. No jinx
