Here is a step in the right direction, perhaps eventually they will let us all in for any reason, for as long as we want.


New U.S. bill would benefit Canadian snowbirds, allowing them to stay there longer​

'This policy is a step in right direction as it recognizes the pivotal impact Canadian snowbirds have on the U.S. sunbelt,' says the Canadian Snowbird Association

Amid heightened tensions and stricter travel policies between the U.S. and Canada, a new bill would extend the amount of time Canadians can spend in the United States.

The Canadian Snowbird Visa Act, which was introduced on April 29, would allow Canadian citizens who own or lease a residence in the U.S. to stay for 240 days annually. That is nearly two months longer than the current policy, which permits Canadians to be in the U.S. for 182 days a year.

“The Canadian Snowbird Association (CSA) has been working closely with members of the United States Congress in an effort to have the Canadian Snowbird Visa Act enacted into law. We are pleased to see it re-introduced in the current session of Congress,” the association said in an emailed statement to National Post on Thursday.
