Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has offered a little more clarity on the idea of a vaccine passport for international travel.
During a recent Ottawa news conference, Trudeau suggested that Canadians could begin travelling outside the country this summer, and that Canada will work with other countries on the required documents with some form of certification to prove vaccinations against COVID-19.
Trudeau told the news conference that his government would work with other countries to create any requireded travel documents.
He said: “As people start to travel again, perhaps this summer if everything goes well, it would make sense for us to align with partners around the world on some sort of proof of vaccination or vaccine certification.
“We are now working with allies, particularly in Europe, on that [vaccine passports or documentation]. But ultimately it is up to every country to determine what requirements they expect from incoming travellers.”
