Travel-Related Measures: A summary of the travel and tourism-related measures in place in each province and territory. A map outlining the current travel restrictions and self-isolation requirements is available on Destination Canada’s website: https://caen-keepexploring.canada.travel/canada-nice#canadamap 2. Methodological Notes: An explanation of the methodologies in the different sections and relevant sources.

1. TRAVEL-RELATED MEASURES

In addition to a federal government requirement mandating testing procedures and 14-day self-isolation for those who are eligible to enter Canada1, individual provinces and territories have implemented measures on travel between provinces and territories. The below table outlines self-isolation requirements for domestic travellers entering into each province or territory, as well as restrictions on travel across provincial and territorial borders. Tracking these measures is challenging given the fluid nature of COVID-19. This information was collected by provincial and territorial tourism marketing authorities and relevant tourism departments and current as of April 21, 2021.

Access to visitor facilities and services may be limited. Please consult the Parks Canada website for an updated list of specific Parks Canada locations with special instructions: https://www.pc.gc.ca/en/voyage-travel/securite-safety/covid-19- info#locations Most provinces and territories have implemented a framework to guide re-opening strategies catered to their individual circumstances. Since each province and territory is starting from a different baseline to implement the reopening of their local economy, the phases and stages are not congruent across jurisdictions. The table below outlines the current status of restrictions on tourism-related sectors as of April 21, 2021. Unless noted, persons must gather and business must operate with sufficient social distancing measures in place. Many destinations require non-medical masks to be worn and all visitors should plan on having masks ready if needed. Tourism Related Measures
