CALGARY The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) confirms a seasonal border crossing from Montana into Alberta will not open as scheduled due to the ongoing pandemic. The Chief Mountain Alberta border crossing, which provides access to Highway 6 near Waterton Lakes National Park, normally opens each year on May 15 and closes for the season on Sept. 30.

On Thursday, Minister of Environment and Climate Change Jonathan Wilkinson made the financial commitment to help rebuild the Crandell Mountain Campground devastated by the 2017 Kenow wildfire and renovate the townsite campground. The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance and health benefits of spending time outdoors, said Wilkinson in a statement released Thursday. With the Townsite Campground fully open, there are now more opportunities for Canadians to do so safely in Waterton Lakes National Park.
