Good piece, fair attitude by President Trudeau, but blanket quarantine has to disappear. Treating every country the same is just a lazy solution, and it should be possible, even for other countries, to replace quarantine with an appropriate testing protocol. According to a survey run by IATA (International Air Transport Association), 83% of respondents would not travel if face with the prospect of a quarantine at either ends of their trip, so a blanket quarantine is very close to a travel ban. It's been over six months since the quarantine was imposed, things have changed enormously, it's time to take tailored measures, not a lazy overarching imposition.
And the last sentence of the article is debatable: there quite a few European countries are better than Canada as far as healthcare is concerned.

Canada has a cool government. Very appreciated attitude. Here I am imprisoned in India and I am not even Indian. In fact, I have fewer rights t to leave than Indians who are privileged by the air bubble rules. There are mornings I wake up suicidal but they do not care! So it is nice to see a caring statement from a government!
