He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:
- “The engagements across the United States and Canada brought to the fore a range of issues that Minister Bartlett will be troubleshooting with his Ministerial colleagues so as to mitigate obstacles to accelerated and sustained growth in the coming weeks and months.
- Ke hana ʻia nei kēia i mea e hoʻonui ai i ka poʻe e hōʻea ana i ka huakaʻi i nā pule a me nā mahina e hiki mai ana, a me ka hoʻoulu ʻana i ka hoʻopukapuka hou ʻana i ka ʻoihana mākaʻikaʻi kūloko.
- Beyond that there are some obstacles and difficulties that are completely outside our control including Canada's very stringent COVID-19 travel rules, which include the need for a PCR test in order to enter the country and logistics and itinerary challenges for Cruise lines.
