Lockdown Tips: The Borders are closed

In order to limit the further spread of coronavirus, the U.S. has reached agreements with both Canada and Mexico to limit all non-essential travel across borders. Working closely and collaboratively, the Department of Homeland Security is part of a North American approach to stop the spread of the virus.

The US-Canada land border serves as an economic engine that supports over $1.7 billion (USD) dollars in daily cross-border trade. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the United States and Canada are temporarily restricting all non-essential travel across its borders. 

Residents of border towns share social, familial and economic ties with their neighbors on the other side of the boundary, so the prolonged limitations have had a disproportionate effect on those communities

The United States has more than two million documented cases of Covid-19, with new surges reported in a number of states. Earlier this week, the United States and Canada agreed the border would remain closed until at least 21 July.
