Canada and the United States conferred over the fate of their shared border after President Donald Trump's closed America's doors to foreign nationals who recently spent time in Europe to stop COVID-19 contagion. Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland said she discussed the development with U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Thursday. The conversation was part of the scrambling the Trudeau government faced after Trump's drastic step to slow the accelerating global pandemic — a move that could pose a serious threat to commerce and travel.
