Canada is launching a standardized proof of vaccination credential in the coming weeks for both domestic and international travel.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made the announcement outside a children's hospital in Ottawa Thursday, saying Canada is among the world's leaders in vaccination rates and Canadians want to begin traveling again.
They add that Canada will continue to engage with the World Health Organization and allies around the world to ensure the credential is accepted as proof of vaccination. So far, many, but not all Canadian provinces and territories have introduced proof of vaccination apps with QR codes for some workers and for entry to many public venues. This new credential will also help Canada enforce one of the toughest vaccine mandates for domestic travel anywhere in the world beginning October 30.
