Good morning RSL family here is some information for you when you prepare to cross the border this year. I got this from our tourism group NOTO.
Of course this comes with a list of COVID safety measures that guests will need to adhere to. Fully vaccinated travelers must meet the following requirements:
be fully vaccinated with a Health Canada approved vaccine (Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, AstraZeneca/COVISHIELD, and/or Johnson & Johnson (one-dose));
provide COVID-19- related information electronically through ArriveCan (App or web portal) including proof of vaccination prior to departing for Canada;
meet the pre-entry testing requirements; negative test up to 72 hours prior to entry into Canada
be asymptomatic upon arrival; and
have a paper or digital copy of their vaccination documentation in English or French (or certified translation, along with the original) ready to show a government official on request; and
participate in random self-testing
The ArriveCan app/website is easy to figure out.
I hope this list is easy to understand. If not don't hesitate to contact us. If I don't make it to the phone in time since we're outside constantly please leave a msg with your name and number. We're getting closer!

My Google calendar just reminded me it is time to check in for our fishing week at Rocky Shore Lodge. I'm so sad to miss this for a second year. I truly hope you are able to weather this storm. I am sure it can't be easy. We will all be there to support you as soon as we are able. Fingers crossed for our July week! Till we meet again...tight lines...Mark

Yes please, I have an important reservation to catch some big fish!
As a former 'child' of both your facility (and next-door Manotak), I share your economic (and emotional pain ... I have very strong emotional ties to the area (1946-1975 (and beyond)) ... do you remember 'Kenora 23' ... I certainly do.
I wish you all the best ... but, living in B.C., chances of the border opening this summer depend totally on your Covidiot Trumplicans ... the US is truly showing its 'leadership' qualities ... the worst on the planet ...
Just know from this old lady fisherperson... if the border doesn't open before I get too old and fragile to get from the dock to the boat and back and I need to cancel altogether, that deposit I made way back when is yours forever. Call it my contribution to the financial stress all this is causing Rocky Shore! Love you guys and wish you well. Donna Larkin
