Mrs. Altair and I, along with our young Altair, have travelled to Canada many times - from Windsor/Essex up through Montreal and Quebec City. We try to remain unobtrusive and never portray the "ugly American" tourist and have always felt welcomed. In other words, we know how to get along with our host as we really like Canadians and Canada. The xenophobia is a concern as it is here. I just think it is going to take time for things to return to the new normal even after a vaccine becomes available and the border opens.
