Default Are boats still being checked at the borders

Folks,

Seems like the TV ads are gone. Are the boat inspection stations gone too?

In BC there were checks close to Fernie and also at Yahk but the Alberta one near the pass was closed when we went through.

With the US border being closed southbound, YES we have a boat check at Coutts and with very few Americans coming to Canukistan due to covid checks, but YES we have a boat inspection open northbound too........ Makes a lotta sense............................. ?????

Gotta spend their budgets even if there's nobody to check ! If you don't spend your budget allotment, it might get cut for next year!
