I know one fellow who lives in Mexico and currently has his temporary resident card and working on his permanent resident card in Mexico; he is visiting close friends in BC Canada to take care of some personal business and now wants to drive back home to San Miguel, and the US Border Patrol won't let him through to return home, even when showing them all the residency paper work. If the US back in March allowed all Canadians to cross into the US to go home, why would the US not allow him to cross into the US so that he can also go home to Mexico? Just doesn't make any sense.
When did he cross into Canada? Assuming post mid March I'm guessing he came in on a Canadian passport? What passport is he carrying? Just saying if Canadian that might be why and unless he has an official employment letter with start/resume date in Mexico or return date, they might not deem it essential travel. Everything so up in the air right now, which brings me to the fact that we can't drive across the border as non essential, yet we can fly to select US cities and as Canadian not be quarantined. Go figure. Plane bubble versus personal auto bubble = I know which one I'd feel safer with.
