Based on the accuracy of CBS News and Yahoo, I would not start packing yet.

I read this as only  Port Washington, and not the entire border.

Call me an optimist but I wouldn't give up hope on late summer or early fall trip for those able to partake on a moments notice.

That was my bet a while back and at the time, umm, well, we've all been windbound before - right?

Have hope!

If you fish you always have hope even when the fish aren't biting.  I think there is just too much economic pressure on the Canadian government to open the border.  September is a wonderful time to take a trip to Quetico.

Glad for that Bill! I read that Canada may be considering easing border closure restrictions by June 21....or so the whispering goes...

No idea what that means for actually crossing the border into say, Quetico. Some folks on another site are making noise about getting a RABC in to be ready. I had read that program has been discontinued....so....I don't know....
