Canada reinstating a pre-arrival negative P-C-R test for all travellers entering the country

BY The Canadian Press, Dec 17, 2021 5:48 PM - REPORT AN ERROR

Health Minister Jean Yves Duclos says with the evolving situation and the overwhelming evidence of Omicron transmission around the world, Canada is lifting its travel restrictions on the 10 African countries it had earlier established in response to the emergence of the new variant. He says this is effective tomorrow.

As of Tuesday, Canada will reinstate the requirement for a pre-arrival negative P-C-R test result for all travellers entering the country, even if they are returning to Canada after being away for under 72 hours.
