"Our responsibility is to keep Canadians safe, especially after all the sacrifices," Mr. Trudeau added. "We all love to accelerate the processes, but we are going to be grounded in what is safe, grounded in science, because it would be catastrophic and heartbreaking to go back into lockdown as some countries are now looking at given surges in the Delta variant."
Canadian business groups have lobbied the Liberal government to consider reopening the U.S.-Canada land border to American tourists who are fully vaccinated to help the tourism and hospitality sectors to salvage sales this summer season. And this week, France's ambassador to Canada said Canada should allow fully-vaccinated French people into the country.
