True but that isn't what has typically been used, so far. But more importantly why would the Port of Miami put all the effort into their vaccinate crew program just so the crew can be shipped off somewhere else? PoM wants ships sailing from PoM. That's why they offered vaccines to crew. It wasn't supposed to be some global crew vaccination effort so that a cruise ship can sail from Europe.

July of 2022 shouldn't be an issue and isn't in scope for the act passed by the Senate. -

I try to avoid eating anchovies. It’s a little fishy.

July 2022 should be fine. Canada's cruise ship ban runs until February 2022. -
I'm just within the current processing times but will pay the expedite fee to better my odds in case of some other delay coming that no one anticipates.

Maybe they can use the timeslot left vacant when Quantum canceled it's Alaska season for Radiance, unless another line already scooped it up. -
We are about to see how bipartisan Washington is or is not. For the sake of Alaska cruising I hope for the latter. Should it pass the next issue for Royal will be getting ships into place. Quantum was already ruled out. Do they sail Ovation across the Pacific empty? Tick tock. With every week lost the payback to cover sailing empty and crewing up looks less and less appealing. Ironically I am supposed to be on Quantum right now on day 5 of my Alaska cruise.

Canada is still struggling with the virus. Some stores remain shut in areas. Rolling lockdowns. Second dose 4 months after first dose due to vaccine shortages and rationing. This week they stopped offering the AstraZeneca vaccine contributing to the slow vaccine rollout. IIRC it will be September before the general population will have a decent opportunity to be fully vaxxed. For now they are aiming for a "one dose summer". I think Canada will sit this one out and wait until 2022.
