"We are giving further tools to airlines and rail companies to ensure that anyone exhibiting COVID-19 symptoms does not travel," he said. He said it will be up to the companies to ensure the new rules are followed.Trudeau also addressed the situation of the 248 Canadians stranded on a cruise ship off the coast of Panama, where some passengers have tested positive for COVID-19 and four others have died.

Two passengers on board the MS Zaandam have tested positive for the disease while 53 passengers and 85 crew have flu-like symptoms, Holland America said in a statement. Michael Kasprow is terrified for his 81-year-old mother, Julie, who is currently contained to her room with her friend on the Zaandam. She is healthy, he said, and had her vital signs checked yesterday.

Kasprow, from Toronto, said he is dealing with a mixture of emotions with the uncertainty about his mother, who lives in Thornhill, Ont.

Oh like people don't lie !!🤣 And only now😨🙄

So are quantitatively measuring O2 sat and pulse and temp? Is there universal masking for all flying? We know there is community spread so why is this happening?

Someone must have told him this line..it cannot come from him..

Great work, Justine... Now, how about doing what you had promised about restricting sick travellers from flying back to Canada.....and not allowing them to just walk right through our airports and into the community.. Fluff and hot airs will not save lives, concrete actions will.

Stop all travel please, there should only be essential service movement, no travelers.

Why are there even planes flying right now? Get off the plane and go home !! Shut things down now. It’s th only way.

NOW, not Monday!!

Do you mean until now passengers with COVID19 were allowed on flights in Canada?

If they have COVID symptoms why are they even out of their house!?!

If your travelling abroad it’s time to come home is it? What if those abroad are now showing signs just gunna say fuck them now ?

So coronavirus experts have been dispatched to every place of transportation ,who can decern an coronavirus sniffle to a cocaine user sniffle

How? By who? What are the criteria? Temperature readings? trudeaus announcement is all fluff Still international flights permitted Slow responses CanadaIsLeaderless Trudeaulies CanadaIsBroken

Always late, this guy. Accountability, he knows how to say the word, but has never felt he will ever be held to it.

But international flights.....no problem. Unreal.

And again we ask why are people travelling

Dumbest man in the country holding a speech. Makes me almost puke every time!

But only starting at lunch time on Monday, you guuuuise. Feel free to spread your Chinese Virus in the meantime.
