According to Global News on the 6th, Canadian Transport Minister Mark Garnaw said that the restrictions on British flights will no longer apply from the early morning of the 7th.
According to the report, the new policy will replace the previous restriction, requiring all passengers entering Canada to provide a valid negative nucleic acid test certificate before boarding the plane.
Garnaw said the new policy will apply to flights in any country, and although it will cause inconvenience to crew and passengers for a while, the federal government hopes that the move will reduce the number of cases of the virus being brought into the country.
Earlier, Canadian Prime Minister and health officials said that people were invited to avoid non-essential international travel out of consideration for those around them.
