Border waits likely here

The Canada Border Services Agency reminds travellers to plan their border crossing to avoid delays during this upcoming Labour Day weekend.
In previous years, the Labour Day long weekend has been one of the busiest of the year in terms of traffic volume.

Peak traffic volumes at the Fort Frances port of entry are anticipated between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 31 and between 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 3, when border wait times may exceed 30 minutes.
Travellers in Northwestern Ontario also may choose to enter Canada via the Rainy River port of entry, where peak traffic volumes are anticipated between 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 3.
Peak traffic volume information and anticipated border wait times are based on historical data.
The CBSA anticipates a four percent increase in traffic this weekend at the Fort Frances port of entry from previous years based on traffic volume trends to date in 2012.
The forecasted traffic volumes may vary depending on numerous factors, including weather conditions.
