Truck drivers have set up a blockade on I-29 just north of Pembina, N.D. at the Emerson, Manitoba Port of Entry.

A Canada Border Services employee at the Emerson Port of Entry tells KVRR news in Fargo that travelers heading into Canada are still able to cross the border but will not be able to get beyond the Port of Entry station.

There was no immediate word on how many trucks are involved.

The border agent, who declined to be identified, says northbound and southbound traffic is being blocked. He says travelers are urged to use alternate border crossings.

Truck drivers have been setting up blockades across Canada, demanding an end to Canada’s COVID-19 restrictions.
