April 27, 2021 GMT
BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) North Dakota has expanded its joint border vaccination program with Canada to include truck drivers from Saskatchewan who are transporting goods to and from the United States, Gov. Doug Burgum said Tuesday.
Burgum and Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe agreed to work together on vaccinating up to 2,000 residents from the Canadian province. A similar program with Manitoba was announced last week.
“Trade with the United States is essential for the Saskatchewan economy,” Moe said. “These essential workers are crossing the border to ensure our residents and those in the United States have access to the goods and services they need to get through this pandemic.”
