IMPACT – MEDIUM
The Canadian government has announced that it will exempt certain short-term travelers from COVID-19 testing requirements and expand its list of approved vaccines on Nov. 30.
Key Points:
Additional Information: After Jan. 15, 2022, only agricultural and food processing workers, marine crew members, those entering on compassionate grounds, new permanent residents, resettling refugees and some children under the age of 18 will be able to enter the country without being fully vaccinated. Such travelers must still follow health and entry requirements.
BAL Analysis: Eligible individuals who are planning trips that are less than 72 hours will be able to travel without having to take a COVID-19 test. The response to the COVID-19 pandemic continues to develop, and BAL will provide additional updates as information becomes available.
