Discussions surrounding the Atlantic Bubble have been delayed until further notice amid ongoing COVID-19 outbreaks.
The Council of Atlantic Premiers made the announcement
“Premiers agreed that recent outbreaks of COVID-19, accelerated by emerging variants of concern, have made it necessary to maintain restrictions on non-essential travel within the Atlantic region,” said the release.
“Premiers will revisit the re-opening of the Atlantic Travel Bubble when the threat of further outbreaks has been reduced, based on advice from the region’s Chief Medical Officers of Health.”
Nova Scotia was placed under a two-week lockdown as of Wednesday morning as COVID-19 cases spiked over the past week.
