Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is being allowed to check out from his quarantine hotel roughly 12 hours after checking in.

Trudeau's office says he received his negative COVID-19 test Wednesday morning and can now leave the three-star Ottawa lodging.

Members of his delegation to Europe who landed in Ottawa around 7 p.m. were tested on arrival and received negative test results the next day at about 8 a.m.

Trudeau was overseas from last Thursday until Tuesday for summits with other G7, NATO and European leaders.

Air travellers landing in Canada without an exemption are currently required to book and pay for a three-night hotel stay but can leave once they receive a negative test result.

An expert review panel recently said the hotel-quarantine policy had no scientific basis and recommended the government scrap it, noting travellers arriving by land face no such rule.

Federal government considers raising deposit insurance limit to $150,000

The federal government is looking for feedback on changes to Canada's deposit insurance framework that could see the coverage limit raised to $150,000. Right now, the Canada Deposit Insurance Corp. will guarantee Canadians' deposits up to $100,000 in the event of a bank failure as long as they're held with a member institution. All large Canadian banks and many other financial institutions are a part of the CDIC framework, which covers most deposits and guaranteed investment certificates but not mutual funds, stocks, bonds or cryptocurrencies.
