Both Canada and the United States are gearing up to deny entry to unvaccinated truckers from the opposing country, a threat to supply chains.
The Canadian mandate goes into effect on Saturday. Unvaccinated truckers from the U.S. will be banned from entering Canada. Unvaccinated Canadian drivers who are reentering Canada via the U.S. will be required to provide a negative COVID-19 test taken 72 hours before crossing and will be forced to quarantine for two weeks.
On the other side of the border, on Jan. 22, a reciprocal U.S. mandate for Canadian drivers is set to go into effect. Canadian truckers who don’t have both shots will be denied entry into the U.S. after that date.
