The Canada-U.S. Border Is Reportedly Staying Closed Until November

Cross border travel will have to wait.
Senior Writer

Another extension could be happening. The Canada-U.S. border closure is reportedly going to stay in place for a couple more months.

Government sources have told CTV News that Canada and the U.S. are expected to extend the border closure agreement until November.

November 21

How long the border could stay closed

Those government sources said that the restrictions put in place earlier in the year will remain until it feels like the COVID-19 pandemic is under control in both countries.

The closure agreement is set to expire on September 21.

That will mark six months since the border was first closed to non-essential travel on March 21.

CBC News has reported that it will stay closed until October 21 but there's a big possibility that it will be much longer than that.
