Don't worry, it was to be with her sick grandmother.
As no Canadian is being kept from seeing their ailing grandparents at the moment, I'd say this is a completely acceptable explanation.
I mean, what kind of sick monster would speak out against someone who just wanted to hug their grandmother for the last time?
Mounotricha.
Yeah, unless a picture comes out of her sun tanning on the beach, she's got a damn good reason to be there. Life is too short to watch your family die from a far.
Except you missed the point. People aren't allowed to cross the street to see their dying grandparent in Canada, you literally are barred from entering the building. If you're lucky you can access a first floor window and watch your loved one die. But not Nikki! Nope, she flew to Greece because as much as she supports the Draconian rules here, she's special.
