Canada has extended travel ban on most foreign travelers from entering the country and launched a new contact tracing app to curb the ‘gate-crashing’ coronavirus pandemic.
The travel ban extends till August 31, not allowing foreign travelers entering Canada from outside the United States. It came despite calls from Air Canada and some European aviation companies for Ottawa to restore safe travel.
Canada has a separate agreement for border crossings with the United States. The two countries earlier this month agreed to extend restrictions on non-essential travel.
