In recent days, the Canadian government has been motivated by two main reasons for relaxing sanitary measures on its territory: the peak of the Omicron wavewhich was passed at the end of January, and also following the protests block federal capital Ottawa (Ontario) for more than two weeks (a movement initiated by truckers obliged to get vaccinated to cross the border into the United States).
On Tuesday February 15, Canada announced the easing of sanitary restrictions at its borders, including the end of negative PCR test requirement from February 28 for vaccinated travellers, while Quebec will progressively give up your vaccination passport by March 14. "It's time to adjust our approach. We are relaxing our border measures today".said Jean-Yves Duclos, the federal Minister of Health. As a reminder, since the start of the Omicron wave, Quebec had introduced very strict measures, banning even private gatherings in January and closing all restaurants, cinemas and theaters. These measures were gradually lifted.
However, travelers will have the choice of using a rapid antigen test or a molecular test, and may also be randomly tested on arrival. In addition, the quarantine is lifted for fully vaccinated travelers awaiting the results of a random test.
The Minister of Transport, Omar Alghabra, announced that " ban on international flights to all remaining airports that normally handle international flights will be lifted » from February 28 as well.
