Trudeau says moving on vaccine mandate for federal workers, travellers priority No. 1

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says his government’s first priority postelection will be to move ahead with plans to require travellers to be fully vaccinated before getting on a plane or train. 

Trudeau also says the government will move ahead with rules for federal workers to be fully vaccinated as well.

Rounding out his top five priorities include finalizing a vaccine passport for Canadians travelling abroad, and helping to foot part of the bill for provinces that have moved forward with their own proof-of-vaccination system.
