OTTAWA (LifeSiteNews) – The Canadian government of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said yesterday that its travel COVID jab mandate as well as virus border measures will remain in place until “at least” June 30.
“The #GoC is extending current border measures for travellers entering Canada until at least June 30, 2022,” tweeted Health Canada and the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) yesterday.
“All travellers, regardless of vaccination status, must continue to submit their information in #ArriveCAN through the free app or website.”
This announcement came just a day after the Trudeau Liberal government, with the help of the NDP, voted against a motion from Conservative Party of Canada’s MP Melissa Lantsman calling for the return of pre-pandemic rules and service levels for travel. The motion failed to pass in the House of Commons; there were 201 votes against it and only 112 for.
The extension of the COVID jab travel mandates was met with disapproval from Alexis von Hoensbroech, the CEO of Canada’s second-largest airline, WestJet. Yesterday, he said the mandates should be “dropped” right away.
Even some in the mainstream Canadian media say it’s time for Trudeau’s COVID travel jab mandate to go.
