Canadian officials provide update to COVID-19 border measures | LIVE
Canadian ministers and officials are expected to provide an update Monday on the current COVID-19 measures in place at the Canada-U.S. border. The update comes just days after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told the country's premiers that non-essential travel from the U.S. could potentially start by mid-August for fully-vaccinated travellers. He also said those with all required doses of a COVID-19 vaccine from other countries would also be able to come into the country by September. While that information from Trudeau was not confirmation of the border's reopening, the deadline on restricted Canada-U.S. border travel could be extended for the last and final time after they're set to expire July 21. Border communities have been pushing for further loosening in hopes of getting a boost in tourism numbers for their economies that partly come from U.S. visitors.
