The radical changes in Canada’s latest travel restrictions has allowed more families to Re-unite & it is a positive step towards the Re-unification process. Changes in cross-border travel policies became important & later on mandatory as family reunification became an emotional necessity. It has been long since the travel restrictions were imposed & family resistance came as a hindrance in distant family meetings. The policies made by the Federal Govt. also enforced strict

monitoring of who should be allowed to travel & meet with their loved ones. This has been a huge step from the Canadian Govt. on compassionate grounds to allow the loved ones and closed ones to meet each other. A step that involves health consideration as well as emotional aspects for families undergoing the situations during the current pandemic.

According to the Immigration minister Marco Mendicino,

MOST RECENT MONITORING MEASURES IN CANADA:

As the Govt. is allowing more people into Canada on groundsof compassionate & family travel. The Govt. of Canada is strictly monitoring and placing more strict monitoring measures into the current monitoring system in place. This is for people to strictly follow the mandatory quarantine orders placed by Canadian Govt. the deployment of approximately 190 Public Health Officials. This deployment apart from PHA of Canada will be adding the staff members to call the travelers who are in the practice of quarantine to have strict checks on them. Govt. of Canada is taking the quarantine measures very seriously as Canada is entering phase 2 i.e. COVID-19 second wave. It is expected that without measures things can get out of hand of Public Health Agency & their past and ongoing efforts. Failure in compliance to the quarantine measures will definitely result in people ending up in Jail or being imposed with some heavy fines.

SAFETY PRIORITIES FROM THE PM JUSTIN TRUDEAU:

The priority of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in line with thecurrent policy developments is to make things safer for Canadians. According to the PM, citizens of Canada have already suffered and they need immediate relaxations in travelling. The Prime Minister wants to make sure that Canadians are protected from COVID-19 & it means taking strong actions at the borders. Justin Trudeau further said that while keeping Canadian safety in check it is the Govt. of Canada’s responsibility to keep improving these measures and make sure Canada stays safe. Compassionate cases are not rare in Canada especially because of the time frame due to the lockdown. The Govt. wants to make sure that people stay away from mental health issues because of simply missing their families for long periods. Hence, Trudeau claims that allowing compassionate travel is the right step at the right time.
