U.S. closing border road to Canadian traffic

A gravel Border Road along the Alberta–U.S. line will be closed to Canadian traffic starting in July. The road sits just inside the American border but has been informally shared by residents on both sides for decades, so the closure will disrupt local cross-border travel and access. The effect is limited to local transportation and community inconvenience and has negligible broader economic or market implications.
