Border closings
It is likely that Canada will not reopen the border. It is also quite possible it will not reopen for about 6 months. Not good news. Latest polls show most Canadians do not want it to reopen

You spoke of a very old mutual agreement. There must be something in print with a full description of the agreement. You should provide a link . Where did you hear of that agreement?
Yes, very old, 1814 in fact. It’s called The Treaty of Ghent, it was the peace treaty that ended the War of 1812. Neither the British nor the Americans had the people, money or desire to militarize the newly settled border. The Americans were concerned their army would be needed against the Spanish & Mexico, the British were wanting to recall their army because of worries over the French militarization. So it was agreed that the border would never closed or armed except by mutual agreement.
It was well before Al Gore invented the Internet, LOL, so I’m not sure if it’s online or not.
