Non-essential travel between the U.S. and Canada will be banned for another month despite mounting pressure from businesses to ease Covid-19 travel restrictions.
Justin Trudeau’s border chief announced an extension of the current border rules until at least July 21 in a tweet Friday morning. The world’s longest undefended border has been closed to most travel since March 2020, when it was shut in an effort to stop the spread of the coronavirus.
