\"\"Crossing the border for quick visits will become a little easier and cheaper.<\/p>\n

As of November 30th fully vaccinated, eligible travelers who leave and then re-enter Canada within three days won’t have to take a PCR test to come back.<\/p>\n

This applies to those returning to Canada via land or air, provided they can prove they have been away from the country for 72 hours or less.<\/p>\n

The rules have not changed for those leaving Canada for longer than 72 hours. In cases where a trip lasts longer than this, travelers (regardless of vaccination status) must provide a pre-entry molecular test taken in the 72 hours before arriving. Antigen tests are not accepted.<\/p>\n

In another move, as of January 15th, unvaccinated athletes will no longer be allowed in Canada.<\/p>\n

\n

The Government of Canada will adjust some of Canada\u2019s border measures beginning on Nov. 30 to include additional #COVID19<\/a> vaccines accepted for entry to Canada and changes to certain exemptions, testing and #ArriveCAN<\/a> requirements.<\/p>\n

\"\"History was made on Friday, when Kamala Harris became America’s first female president. Sort of.<\/p>\n

President Biden underwent a colonoscopy, so he was put under anesthesia. When that happens, the vice president is given full presidential power, and becomes the acting president.<\/p>\n

This happens regularly, and the VP doesn’t literally become president. But it’s still pretty historic that Harris became the first woman to assume the duties of the president of the United States.<\/p>\n

\"\"Residents of a town in Hawaii alerted authorities to a river that smelled like beer.<\/p>\n

They were right.<\/p>\n

The stream on the island of Oahu, was smelling so alcoholic that one resident said \u201cyou would think it was a beer pub that hadn\u2019t opened its doors for three or four days.\u201d A laboratory found that almost 1.2 percent of the water was alcoholic.<\/p>\n

The area is fairly industrial and home to Paradise Beverages, which makes beer. Hawaii investigated and found alcohol in contaminated runoff water from a pipe that flowed down into a creek, with a drop of about 100 feet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"November 22nd is the 326th day of 2021.
