US Closes Mexican and Canadian borders

US closes Mexican and Canadian borders by mutual consent:

Earlier today President Trump announced the closing of the southern border (Mexico) and northern border (Canada) to non essential travel. Entry/Exit for trade and business travel will continue to operate with additional screening.

1 The United States has reached mutual agreements with Canada and Mexico to restrict non-essential travel across our northern and southern borders.


There's more but mainly about illegals and not relevant

I just spotted this near the bottom:
-
American citizens, lawful permanent residents, and individuals with valid travel documents will be exempted.


Exactly what that means for RV travel I don't know. Probably means US citizens can return across the borders.

    That's pretty much it. You can return to your own country. Otherwise, cross border travel is restricted to essential travel. Visiting, sightseeing and relaxing is not essential so you will be turned back.
  • I agree. U.S. residents should always be able to return.
