Trudeau Ministers Begin Sketching Plan to Reopen U.S. Border Bloomberg 10 hrs ago Kait Bolongaro
(Bloomberg) Justin Trudeau’s government began to outline the conditions for easing travel restrictions at the Canada-U.S. border.
Intergovernmental Affairs Minister Dominic Leblanc said Friday that U.S. and Canadian officials are discussing how to move forward with reopening the world’s longest international border, which has been closed to most non-essential traffic for more than a year to curb the spread of coronavirus.
“We recognize that in the coming weeks, when the number of vaccinated people grows and if we continue to see a reduction in Covid cases and hospitalizations, that we may be in a position to progressively loosen these measures,” Leblanc told reporters.
