Canada and the United States have agreed to keep the border closed to non-essential travel through June 21, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced in his press conference Tuesday.
The previous agreement was set to expire on May 21.

"The situation is changing rapidly and we're adjusting constantly to what are the right measures for Canadians to get that balance right between keeping people safe, and restoring a semblance of normality and economic activity that we all rely on.
