Stricter quarantine rules are now in force for travellers returning to Canada.
Health Minister Patty Hajdu says all travellers returning to Canada must go into self-isolation for fourteen days, though there are exceptions for "essential workers".
Returning travellers are also forbidden from self-isolating in a place where they may come into contact with vulnerable people - like the elderly or those with underlying medical conditions - with the Public Health Agency of Canada to make alternate arrangements.
While the government's continually urged travellers to enter a two-week self-isolation once returning to Canada, this order will make it illegal to disobey, on penalty of fines or arrest.
