What you Yanks don't understand is that Canada is very divided . Western Canada funds Eastern Canada, the East has the far greater population and controls political policy. It is not equitable.
During the world wars the bulk of the fightinging men came from the west, tough westerners and fierce fighters.
Trudeau, his Dad and his ilk are on the other side and this is/was not good for western Canada.
I do however hope Canada keep travel restrictions in place, tourism creates a false economy, unneccessary and wasteful. Learn how to enjoy you own home, imo.
We see no covid here, and don't need to import any.
