Canada-U.S. border closure extended to Oct. 21

Last Updated Friday, September 18, 2020 12:32PM EDT

Crossings of the border have been largely restricted to trade goods, essential workers and citizens returning home since March, in an attempt to limit the spread of COVID-19. "We will continue to base our decisions on the best public health advice available to keep Canadians safe," Blair wrote. At the same time, leaders in border communities have asked federal authorities to loosen restrictions slightly to allow people with links on both sides to live more normally.

We dont need stupid Americans coming hear with their attitude and start spreading Covid around Canada. We have done really well and dont want to end up with 1000 deaths a day

Keep it closed until the US starts taking the virus seriously...

I heard now Jan 2021?

Don’t make any plans til 2021

Keep it closed!

Keep it closed until American gets its act together. That may take a long time.

May need to be closed forever. AmericanCivilWar

What closure? 30,000 people fly in & out of Canada daily.

As per Dump Trump, we want to open the borders lol 😂

Open the border when the lunatic realDonaldTrump is gone. We will gladly welcome our US neighbors back.

Our Canadian border will remain closed until there's a vaccine and the pandemic is under control, which now it's not even close to being that way.

We can't lockdown forever. Perhaps they should have held off on opening the bars & strip clubs rather than reuniting families/couples though. Imagine that? LoveIsNotTourism Hey snow birds the liberals are shutting you in, I’m hopes that you’ll dump your vacation property so they can tax the shit out of you capital gains. You had to see this coming!
