It has now been one year since the border was first shut down to curb the spread of COVID19

The border between Canada and the U.S. will remain closed to non-essential travel for at least another month.

Public Safety Minister Bill Blair made the announcement late Friday the closure has been extended to March 21.

It has now been one year since the border was first shut down to curb the spread of COVID-19.

The closure has been extended month-by-month since the pandemic began.
