Was B.C. contemplating “any specific border restrictions?” Horgan was asked during his weekly news conference on Wednesday.
“Not at this time,” he replied, but added: “We have staff working on various plans and protocols that we could put in place we don’t want to get caught short.”
He said the province was consulting the same officials “that we used to shore up the federal government … by putting provincial government workers at various border points across the U.S. border.”
The province dispatched its own staff in the spring out of concern that Ottawa was foot-dragging on screening and quarantining returning Canadians and others at airports and international borders.
