I am in a dilemma and was hoping someone could help me out.

Assuming that the Canada - US land border opens soon, I plan on visiting the US for 2 weeks with my family. Unfortunately, my wife's PR card is expiring. We've applied for a renewal but there's a slim chance of it arriving before our planned trip. If I do use my car to enter the USA and return back to Canada, can my wife re enter Canada on the basis of her original COPR? Or can someone suggest another viable option?

Yes, she can re-enter based on her COPR.

Any recent experiences? I called Border Control and they mentioned it will be up to the discretion of the border agent at time of entry.
