MORE CANADIANS EXPECTED TO BEGIN TRAVELLING AMID EASED RESTRICTIONS.

By Chandrayee Roy Choudhury, Canada: Canada is set to further loosen its COVID-19 restrictions for travellers starting Monday. Travel experts expect it to spur an influx in Canadians travelling.





As of Monday, children ages 5 to 11 who are accompanied by a fully vaccinated parent, step parent, guardian or tutor will no longer be required to complete a pre-entry COVID-19 test. Children under the age of five also do not need to provide a test.



Fully vaccinated travellers will no longer need to provide a quarantine plan upon returning to Canada.

However, pre-entry tests will still be required for partially vaccinated or unvaccinated travellers ages 12 and older who are currently eligible to travel to Canada.
