The federal government is asking Canadians not to travel abroad for at least the next four weeks as the Omicron coronavirus continues to spread.

“If you do not have to travel internationally, please do not,” Intergovernmental Affairs Minister Dominic LeBlanc said Wednesday.

Health Minister Jean-Yves Duclos said the official order to avoid international travel will be in place for the next four weeks, after which the situation will be re-evaluated.

“The rapid spread of the omicron variant on a global scale makes us fear the worst,” he said.

He said they will continue to ramp up PCR COVID-19 testing measures at all border entry points over the next few weeks.

“I know that we’re all tired of the pandemic, but I must call on the solidarity of all Canadians,” he said.

More to come.
