BC Parks campsites closed to non-residents

[ferniesnow]

Just read on the CBC ticker tape that BC Parks campsites will be closed this summer to non-residents.

I will do a little more research and see what I can add to the above. I am going to assume that this does not include National Parks campsites in BC nor private campsites in BC.

Saskatchewan has posted the same restrictions. No out of province campers allowed at provincial sites.

We have prior reservations booked. We called BC parks this morning and they said they will still HONOR existing reservations. It is recommended that you cancel but NOT enforced. No new bookings out of province will be issued.

Their wording has been very wishy washy with unclear answers.

Wishy washy is government policy.

think its a good idea. keep the money from residents in each of their own provinces.

I wonder if the BCparks employee's can understand the rules?

CBC radio just said that they would be asking for ID to prove you were a resident. If not you wouldn’t be turned away and no refund.
They said SK and AB have same rules.

Anyone feel like your right to freedom exists?

It’s not in Canada’s constitution...

Will be interesting how long and how forcefully our politicians will brainwash the sheep. Gee amazing that Kenney missed the probable infection rate in Alberta he predicted at 600,000 cases by mid May now at 6800 cases, hmm only missed it by 99%.
