Ottawa: The Canadian government is advising Canadians not to travel ahead of the holiday season.
Officials said that to prevent travel-related infections at a time of mounting case counts, the federal government has changed its official guidance to advise Canadians to avoid all non-essential travel outside the country for the time being.
Health Minister Jean-Yves Duclos said the advisory against international travel is going back in place. At a press conference alongside other federal ministers, Duclos also said the government will continue to increase testing capacity at ports of entry.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau met with premiers last night to discuss public health measures, including travel measures.
