Canadians who return from the United States for non-essential reasons are ordered to quarantine for 14-days upon their return.
Reports released this past week had cited that those who wanted to travel to the U-S to get a COVID-19 vaccine could do so after getting a medical exemption from their family doctor and be exempt from the 14-day quarantine.
A statement from Canada Border Services Agency to myFM states that rules remain the same for everyone. Border services officers do not have discretion to exempt travellers from quarantine based on an assumed level of risk the traveller poses or any other factor.
The border closure for non essential travel was also extended this past week to June 21st.
