The Canadian government will soon require all air travellers and passengers on interprovincial trains to be vaccinated against Covid-19.

Transport Minister Omar Alghabra said that includes all commercial air travellers, passengers on trains between provinces and cruise ship passengers, AP reported.

“As soon as possible in the Fall and no later than the end of October, the Government of Canada will require employees in the federally regulated air, rail, and marine transportation sectors to be vaccinated. The vaccination requirement will also extend to certain travellers. This includes all commercial air travellers,” his office said in a statement.
