I have been receiving many messages from a number of concerned parents who are permanent residents and whose children have travelled across the water. Let me read from one of these for you.
A mother here in Canada contacted me about her husband, who is a permanent resident, and her two-and-a-half-year-old baby, Cerena, who is a Canadian citizen. The father and the daughter are currently in China. Her husband is hospitalized with a suspected case of the virus and her daughter is in quarantine, though showing no symptoms.
The government isn't giving any answers to some really serious questions. I've had many people ask me this first one. Will permanent residents be eligible to get on that plane?
