So this is getting interesting...fully vaccinated Americans maybe be allowed to cross the border by mid-August. That could open the door for the US jets to stage at London.
Canada could start accepting fully vaccinated travellers from the U.S. for non-essential travel by mid-August, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told the country’s premiers Thursday.

....

Trudeau told the premiers that federal ministers will have more to say about reopening plans early next week.



Restrictions on non-essential travel at the Canada-U.S. border are set to expire on July 21. Under the plan revealed by Trudeau, the deadline may be extended one last time by 30 days before fully vaccinated travellers are allowed again.
So they may extend it again until August 21st before finally opening up to non-essential travel for Americans. That would be cutting it close for the show!

I guess we'll wait and see if the Blues and other US jets will be allowed to stage from London or not.
