Transport Canada has announced that it will lift restrictions on cruise ships in Canadian waters on November 1. Due to the improved status of new coronavirus infections in Canada, the initial period until February 28, 2022 has been significantly reduced. Flight is required to comply with public health laws set by the state, states and territories.

In Canada, the large cruise liner season is from April to October, so even if the navigation restrictions are lifted in November, the number of tourists will not increase immediately. Therefore, it is expected that the number of stops will increase from small passenger ships with 100 passengers or less. Due to the risk of re-infection on indigenous islands and areas, port calls may not be permitted after November.
