Nonessential border crossings to be halted, including vacationing. See my other post.

Goat wasnt so off base, it seems.

That's correct.
"Canada and the United States have agreed to restrict non-essential travel across the border":
https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/canada-us-border-deal-1.550...

Workers, foreign students and some other categories are allowed. Returning Canadians too. The article is Canadian and it writes more about Canada, but I would "think" it will be the same for American citizens - they may return home to the US if they happen to be in Canada now. Subject to screening at the border, to quarantine sick people before letting them in. Airlines may deny boarding of such a returning person upon screening. It doesn't sound like outbound trips for citizens of either country will be allowed.

Btw, Canadian statistics for the last several weeks: 75% of new cases are travelers, and 10% are those in close contact with incoming traveler. Should've come with this measure a month ago.
