07/19/2021 01:47 PM EDTOTTAWA — Canada will ease border restrictions for fully vaccinated, discretionary travelers from the United States on Aug. 9 before loosening the Covid-19 measures for those from other countries on Sept. 7.
Canada’s vaccination rate has climbed past the U.S. in recent days, while case counts and hospitalizations have dropped. The border rules, however, will only be pared back over the coming weeks if Canada’s epidemiology remains favorable, the federal government said. Canada will continue to deny entry to those who have yet to be fully vaccinated unless they are already exempt under the Quarantine Act.Getting through the door:
Those arriving in Canada must provide evidence of their vaccination in English, French or a certified translation in addition to the original. Travelers will also be required to upload Covid-related information, including proof of vaccination, through the ArriveCan app or web portal before departure to Canada.
