vaccinated travellers

The federal government announced plans on Thursday, July 14, 2022, to start randomly testing travellers at Canada's four main airports for COVID-19 again next week, but intends to move the actual swabbing off-site.

The change will spark a surge in travel bookings both into and out of the country, according to the Tourism Industry Association of Canada, although it's not likely to reach pre-pandemic levels yet.

Vaccinated travellers will no longer need to show a COVID-19 test to enter Canada beginning April 1, Health Minister Jean-Yves Duclos officially announced on Thursday, March 17, 2022.

Test requirements for travellers vaccinated against COVID-19 at the Canadian border need to be re-examined, particularly for short trips, says the country's top doctor.

Canada is getting ready to welcome the world again, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau quietly indicated late on Thursday, July 15, 2021, as his office disclosed a target of mid-August for when the border might reopen for fully vaccinated Americans.
