/ The Peace Bridge between the U.S. and Canadian borders. Fully vaccinated Americans will be allowed to enter Canada via the Peace Bridge starting Aug. 9.
It’s finally happening: Americans will once again be able to enter Canada starting next month.
The Canadian government announced Monday it will reopen its border to fully vaccinated Americans beginning Aug. 9. The U.S. has yet to announce whether it will open its border to Canadians and whether they’ll be required to be fully vaccinated.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau alluded to the border reopening last week while on a call with province premiers. Monday’s official announcement comes almost exactly 16 months after the border was first closed to nonessential travel due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as months of clamoring by lawmakers and Americans and Canadians to reopen.
