ST. STEPHEN, N.B. It’s a wait-and-see game Alicia Weeks is tired of playing. We get our hopes every single month, says Weeks, speaking about Canada/U.S. border restrictions which have been renewed 15 times since March 2020. You lose hope after so long. The latest restrictions will expire and be revisited, once again, on July 21 by Canadian and U.S. federal officials. Weeks, who owns a retail shop near the downtown St. Stephen border crossing, has a personal stake in the border rules. Half of my family is over there,” says Weeks, motioning toward Calais, Maine. A number of us have our family just minutes away from us but we haven’t been able to see them.
