Mr. Speaker, I am surprised that my colleague is calling some of the strictest rules in the world “half measures”.
Let me remind my colleague that as of March of last year, we have asked all Canadians to cancel non-essential flights. We banned foreigners, we implemented a 14-day quarantine, and earlier this year we added a pre-boarding test that is necessary prior to anybody arriving in Canada. Last week, we announced further layers to restrict discretionary travel.
These are important measures that are protecting the health and safety of Canadians.
