Overview

• The CBSA's changes are coordinated with the United States to improve security and resource allocation.
• Adjustments are based on analyses of operational pressures and peak periods at border crossings.
• Most affected ports of entry process fewer than two vehicles per hour during the hours being cut.
• Travelers will have alternative border crossing options within a 100 km radius of affected ports.
• The initiative supports the mutual enforcement of the Safe Third Country Agreement between Canada and the U.S.
