no Can/US border opening for a long time

Simple, they have lots of time to vet a person for temperature etc, while they are still in Canada at an airport. They can also better track where they are in order to enforce quarantine. Crossing by land makes quarantine very difficult to follow.

More likely a tit for a tat reaction to subtly put pressure on Canada to back down. They can't really complain about us stopping their citizens crossing if they are stopping ours.

At best they take your temp at the airport and ask you if you have symptoms...they can do the same thing at a land crossing.

There are generally no quarantines actually being enforced anyway and it's not hard to move about the country once you are in by land or air, so not hard to leave the more strict states.
