Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says provinces and the federal government have agreed on a new national vaccine passport for domestic and international travel.
Several provinces have already begun to roll out the new proofs of vaccination.
He announced this morning that several jurisdictions have already begun to roll out the new proofs of vaccination, including Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Quebec, Ontario, Nunavut, Saskatchewan, Northwest Territories and Yukon.
Government officials say all provinces plan to have their version of the Canadian document available by the end of next month.
Officials have been working with international travel organizations and border service agencies of top Canadian destinations to ensure the document will be recognized around the world.
