TRAVEL RESTRICTIONS COMPLICATE CROSS-BORDER RELATIONSHIPS Bronwyn Stoddard laughs as Jonathan Reilly cracks eggs and mixes brownie batter in a theatrical fashion on her computer screen. She’s trying for the fifth time to walk him through her coveted brownie recipe. Such distance dates have become the norm for the duo as Stoddard lives in Saskatoon and Reilly lives in Los Angeles. The two have been together for three years. Before the pandemic, they traveled to see each other every eight weeks. When the pandemic struck and borders started to close, the pair struggled with what to do. Eventually Stoddard decided to fly to L.A. and work remotely.
