Last I heard was talk of some dates but nothing concrete at that time. This covid border closure BS is really causing them harm. Surely pro WHO/UN proponent Trudeau will keep the border closed thru December and beyond as long as he can in attempt to accomplish WHO/UN goals and this is very bad for FHA. This probably means the border will remain closed thru January and beyond.

Border will likely be closed at least another 4-6 months while Trudeau keeps pretending to be scared to further his agenda.

So FHA is loaded with goods, most everything except coyotes, they will surely have sales sooner than later. Can't pay the bills on love.

IMO. If I was a foreign fur company and I needed furs I would send my buyers to Canada 2 weeks early and have them quarantine in a hotel so they would be good to go for the auction. I would cost a lot less to put them up in a hotel than the money their losing by not filling their orders.
