The Canadian Trucking Alliance was informed today by the Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) that the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) is directing the agency, effective immediately, to implement a policy requiring all essential workers crossing the border to wear a non-medical mask or face covering and to provide drivers with a mask should they not have one.<\/p>\n

In its conversation with CBSA, CTA was told that no drivers will be turned away from entering Canada as a result of this policy and CBSA will be attempting to provide drivers with a mask should they not have one.
\nThe direction from the Public Health Agency of Canada reads:<\/p>\n

\u201cIn addition, all travellers arriving in Canada will be required to wear a non-medical mask or face covering to proceed to their final destination where they will isolate or quarantine. They will be provided with a mask if they do not have one.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

To understand what a non-medical mask or face covering is, please see here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

CTA will be working with CBSA and PHAC to specifically define which appropriate face coverings will satisfy the policy.<\/p>\n
