TORONTO, ON — Canada will likely drop the vaccine requirement for people who enter Canada by the end of September.

Canada, like the United States, requires foreign nationals to be vaccinated when entering the country. It is not known whether the U.S. will make a similar move by Sept. 30.

The official said that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau needs to give final sign off on it but that the government will likely be dropping the requirement as well as ending random COVID-19 testing at airports.

Filling out information in the unpopular ArriveCan app will also no longer be required.

The official spoke on condition of anonymity as they were not authorized to speak publicly on the matter.
