The closure of the borders is adversely affecting Canada and America. Point Roberts, Washington is trapped by B.C which is why it isn’t exactly connected to the USA by land. Hence the governor of the state sent a message to Trudeau for help. Robert points are located at the end of the BC peninsula and are not connected to Washington in any particular way but it is a part of the USA since it is below the 49th parallel. Since the border has been shut between the two countries due to corona, almost 1300 people are stuck who can’t leave the town.
The governor Jay Inslee sent a letter for help for this issue. He goes on stating that because of the separation from the state and the U.S., services are only taking place in Point Roberts. Hence the citizens usually pass through into Canada or through to Washington to get what they require. He goes on to believe that Trudeau will perhaps help in easing the movement through B.C. Something that could possibly help could be a transit pass which lets USA citizens pass through Canada to go to Alaska. This could possibly happen by displaying the pass at the Peace Arch Border Crossing.
Over the years, we have creatively worked together to solve problems and realize so many opportunities,” Inslee states this in his letter.
