Cross Border Trade With the USA as Ususal

We have had calls about cross border livestock trade this spring. Below is a pdf with this information but also the highlights of it. In short, yes you can deliver/pick-up cattle no problem, functions as usual.
https://www.cattle.ca/assets/dcdd1a735f/2020-v3.03.24_CCA-Questions-and-Answers_International-Shipments.pdf

Will the Canada-US border remain open for cargo? Will rail lines, ports and trucking services continue to operate?
The continued movement of agri-food products, both at home and abroad, is essential to Canada’s plan to manage COVID 19. The Government of Canada (GoC) has been clear the movement of goods over borders will not be restricted.
Does this mean that the border is still open to cattle trade?
Yes, the GoC has determined the continuation of trade is essential. The CFIA has identified the services required for import and export of commercial goods, including all classes of cattle and livestock genetics (embryos and semen), as a high priority in its business continuity plan. Visit www.inspection.gc.ca for further information. 
Do I have to be a commercial trucker to transport cattle?
No. As usual, individual producers can transport their own livestock for commercial purposes. CFIA employees at a Canadian/American land border crossing will proceed as normal when inspecting a shipment carrying food and/or livestock.
Do I need to self-quarantine after returning from the US transporting commercial goods such as livestock?
No. The GoC has issued a directive stating that any healthy truck drivers transporting food and/or animals for commercial purposes into Canada from the United States are exempt from the 14-day self-isolation period for COVID-19.
However, workers in these sectors should: 
  • practise social distancing (maintain a distance of 2 metres from others)
  • closely self-monitor 
  • self-isolate should they exhibit any symptoms
