The Federal Government is set to announce on Monday a phased approach to loosening some border restrictions for fully vaccinated Canadians.
Public Safety Minister Bill Blair says the changes to the border restrictions will be limited to a few measures, and non-essential travel is still discouraged.
Blair says the government has been working with international partners, including the United States on a vaccine verification system for international travel.
On Friday the government said it would extend restrictions at the Canada U.S. border for another month, but that changes would be coming for fully vaccinated Canadians and permanent residents.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says that Canada will need to meet the COVID-19 vaccines target of 75 per cent with a first dose and 20 per cent with two doses before his government lifts border restrictions.
