Flight risk: Canada's new travel rules, explained

from This Matters Hosted by Toronto Star

Are your travel plans up in the air? Do you want to make a run for the border? Canadians have been warned about non-essential travel, but for those who still cross borders the federal government has enacted tougher measures and now requires COVID testing and quarantining when entering Canada. Those who try to dodge the rules will face possible fines. Will it help curb case numbers? Critics say there are still loopholes to travel through. Jacques Gallant, a federal politics reporter, has been following the travel file. He joins us to discuss the government's latest moves.
