OTTAWA (Reuters) -Canada on Monday said it would allow fully vaccinated U.S. tourists into the country starting from Aug. 9 after the COVID-19 pandemic forced an unprecedented 16-month ban that many businesses complained was crippling them.
Inoculated visitors from countries other than the United States will be permitted to enter beginning on Sept. 7. The relaxation depends on Canada s COVID-19 rates remaining favorable, officials said. Thanks to the rising vaccination rates and declining COVID-19 cases, we are able to move forward with adjusted border measures, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said at a news conference in Brampton, Ontario.
