The Canada-U.S. border will remain closed to non-essential travel until July 21 following a further extension announced by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Tuesday.

The widely-expected 30-day extension was announced by Trudeau in his daily coronavirus press briefing.

"I can now confirm that Canada and the U.S. have agreed to extend current border measures by 30 days until July 21," Trudeau said.

"This is a measure that will protect people on both sides of the border as we continue to fight COVID-19."

The move represents a third month-long extension to the border closure, initially announced in March.
