Canada will open its borders to fully vaccinated US citizens next month after a nearly 17-month closure. In a statement released by the Government of Canada, "On September 7, 2021, provided that the domestic epidemiologic situation remains favourable, the Government intends to open Canada's borders to any fully vaccinated travellers who have completed the full course of vaccination with a Government of Canada-accepted vaccine at least 14 days prior to entering Canada and who meet specific entry requirements."
"As a first step, starting August 9, 2021, Canada plans to begin allowing entry to American citizens and permanent residents, who are currently residing in the United States, and have been fully vaccinated at least 14 days prior to entering Canada for non-essential travel. This preliminary step allows for the Government of Canada to fully operationalize the adjusted border measures ahead of September 7, 2021, and recognizes the many close ties between Canadians and Americans," it added.
Meanwhile, this decision taken by the government for the purpose of prevention of coronavirus in the country. With such a strategy, the scope of protection against the epidemic can increase in a more phased manner. Let us tell you that Canada imposed ban for the first time on 22 April. Meanwhile, this ban was to end on July 21. But even before its end, the government has extended its period till August 21.
