Fully vaccinated American citizens and permanent residents who want to come to Canada for non-essential reasons will be allowed to do so starting on August 9th.
As of August 9th, American travellers who are fully vaccinated will be able to come to Canada for discretionary travel without needing to quarantine upon arrival, and the government-approved hotel quarantine program will also be axed on that date.
Fully vaccinated travellers from other countries will be allowed to come as of Sept. 7th.
Travellers will still have to submit proof of a negative COVID-19 molecular test before arrival. But post-arrival, those fully vaccinated travellers will not need to do a post-arrival test as a matter of routine.
Fifty percent of Canadians are now fully vaccinated, while the percentage of those with at least one dose is roughly 75 percent.
