This includes all existing testing and quarantine measures for those arriving to Canada via air, as well as the mandatory three-day quarantine hotel stay that must be paid for by the traveller.
Although there are hefty penalties for failing to comply with current travel rules, some travellers continue to use Canada’s land borders as a way of avoiding a quarantine hotel stay.
This latest announcement comes on the same day that the Canada-U.S. border closure extension was confirmed, as well as the extension of Canada's international travel restrictions.
