“Economic supply chains and trade will remain open and we will work to ensure that access to goods and services is not interrupted. As such, these changes should not affect commercial traffic,” the agency said.
Canada and the U.S. introduced border measures to limit the spread of the virus in late March. Talks are underway on extending the travel restrictions.
