The United States and Canada have apparently agreed to close the border between the countries to “non-essential traffic.”
President Trump made the announcement about the temporary closure of the norther border of the United States of America earlier today (3/18) via Twitter.
We will be, by mutual consent, temporarily closing our Northern Border with Canada to non-essential traffic. Trade will not be affected. Details to follow!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 18, 2020
The border closure will not affect trade between the two countries according to both President Trump and Canada’s Prime Minister Trudeau.
Do you think this is a good move during the COVID-19 crisis?
