PLATTSBURGH â For months on end, north country officials have been pleading with Canada to consider allowing some cross-border traffic to resume, but they havenât had much success.
Now, with U.S. Sen. Majority Leader Charles Schumer on board, hopefully some progress can be made soon as summer is now well underway.
âFor the last two months, we havenât seen any progress and that is not acceptable,â Schumer said during a visit to Plattsburgh [July 6]. âIt is unacceptable to have no progress when summer is the season, more than any other, where we here in the north country and throughout New York state need the Canadians for our economic livelihood. And they want to come here.â
