Starting on Aug. 9, American citizens who are fully vaccinated may freely enter Canada. This news comes after a restriction on all non-essential travel that has been in place since March 2020.
This will make travelling to the Toronto International Film Festival much easier for festgoers from the U.S. This year’s TIFF will be a hybrid online and in-person festival running from Sept. 9 to 18 after last year’s fully online event.
“Thanks to the rising vaccination rates and declining Covid-19 cases, we are able to move forward with adjusted border measures,” said Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau in a statement. The United States is the first country for which Canada will adjust travel restrictions. Trudeau noted this as a “recognition of our unique bond, especially between border communities.”
The Canadian government plans to lift restrictions for vaccinated individuals from other countries to enter starting Sept. 7.
