BC Trucking Association President, Dave Earle would like more drivers vaccinated for COVID-19, even if that means potentially heading south of the border to do so.
Recently, the Manitoba Government and the State of North Dakota launched a joint initiative to vaccinate essential workers – this saw truck drivers in that province head to the neighboring state to receive their first dose.
According to the Ministry of Health, BC does not have agreements in place with states like Washington, Alaska, or Idaho – something Earle would like to see changed.

North Dakota Seeks Intervention Status in Dakota Access Pipeline Case
Devils Lake Journal
North Dakota – U.S. Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND) issued the following statement on the State of North Dakota seeking intervention status in the lawsuit over the Dakota Access Pipeline today:
