Susan in Maine Posted September 13, 2022 #1 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Justin Trudeau has declared Monday September 19 as a National Holiday. Right now it only affects business/government/etc. under control of the federal government. The question is how it will affect cruises should the Provinces also declare a holiday. We're in St. John on Monday. I guess we will have to wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare 1kaper Posted September 14, 2022 #2 Share Posted September 14, 2022 New Brunswick had a law where they automatically recognize any national holiday so it will be a holiday in Monday. However, it will only affect government offices. Business can chose whether to open or not. I would expect it wont affect your visit too much.

Rare 1kaper Posted September 14, 2022 #3 Share Posted September 14, 2022 As a note Nova Scotia and Newfoundland have made the same decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare 1025cruise Posted September 14, 2022 #4 Share Posted September 14, 2022 I would expect for the most part, any tourist aimed business will be up and running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaeRaeM4 Posted September 14, 2022 #5 Share Posted September 14, 2022 I live in St. John's, NL and the holiday is only affecting Government offices. All local shops and restaurants will be open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipgeeks Posted September 14, 2022 #6 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Do you see the holiday affecting the ArriveCAN applications that are due to be completed on Monday (for a Thursday cruise)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all done by computers, so as long as you do it right and don't need human intervention, it should be fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
