There's An Interactive Map That Tells You Where You Can Travel In Canada Now

Figure out that summer vacation.
Senior Writer

This could come in handy for any summer vacation plans. Are you asking yourself where can I travel in Canada now? A new interactive map tool will tell you exactly what the situation is in different parts of the country and if there are any restrictions to be aware of.

Put together by the Canadian Travel & Tourism Roundtable, the Time to Travel map is a way for people across the country to figure out where they can go.

"Our mission is to promote a responsible reboot of the travel and tourism industries by prioritizing safety and adherence to new regulations," the group said.

When using the interactive map, you have to put in which province or territory you want to visit and which one you're a resident of.

There are three stages: you can go there, you can go but there are restrictions, or you can't go at all.

So, a resident of Ontario who puts that they want to take a trip to Manitoba will see that there are restrictions.

That's because people who aren't residents of northwestern Ontario or western Canada have to self isolate for 14 days after entering Manitoba.

Currently, nobody from any province can travel to Nunavut or the Northwest Territories.

The three stages of the interactive map are colour coded with red, yellow and green so that it's easy to understand just by looking at it.

It's like traffic lights.

Red means a trip there isn't allowed, yellow means there are restrictions and green means you're good to go.

Residents of B.C. can visit the Yukon and won't have to self-isolate starting on July 1 so the territory is green on the map.

Provinces on Canada's east coast recently approved an Atlantic travel bubble that starts on July 3.

That will allow residents of Nova Scotia, Newfoundland & Labrador, New Brunswick and P.E.I. to move freely to the other three provinces without self-isolating.

Canada currently has a travel advisory in place that warns against all non-essential trips out of the country.

However, there's no official word about not vacationing within it.
