Canada has a total of 104,000 COVID-19 cases, with more than 67,000 of those recovered. The country accounts for about 1.02% of worldwide cases, while the U.S. accounts for around 25% of cases.
In that regard, it may not be surprising to hear Canadians prefer to keep the Canada-U.S. border closed for now.
