Canadian rock band Arkells has shared some advice about COVID-19 in Canada with their fans, and it seems the prime minister approves!

In a TikTok video reposted on Twitter, Arkells frontman Max Kerman can be seen urging Canadians to wear a mask, follow public health advice and to download the COVID-19 alert app.

“SIGN UP HERE TO SEE CONCERTS (one day)” wrote the band, sharing a link to download the app.

It was a message backed up by the prime minister, who retweeted the band’s video and added a message of his own.

Sharing the clip, Trudeau added, “What they said.”

He continued, “The sooner we get this second wave under control, and the sooner we beat this virus, the sooner we can get back to doing these things together.”

The PM’s comments come as Canada continues to break daily COVID-19 case records.

On Sunday, the country reported over 3,000 new cases of the illness in just 24 hours.
