The TorontoPearson Airport’s Twitter account said that 'all travellers and employees inside the terminal must wear a mask or face covering.'

"I lifted my mask to join some friends in conversation at the Toronto airport this afternoon. It was an error on my part, it won’t happen again," Pallister said.

Kelsie Chiasson, a spokesperson for Scheer, confirmed that he was at the airport -- though she claimed he only briefly removed his mask. When asked to clarify why Scheer doesn’t appear to be on the phone in either photo, Chiasson repeated that the photos must have been taken before Scheer put the mask back on.

According to the airport's website, the rule has been in place since June 1. While it names four exceptions for the use of a face mask or covering, the use of a phone is not among them.
