Starting July 6th at midnight, international travelers who are fully vaccinated (2 doses of Moderna, Pfizer or AstraZeneca or 1 dose of Johnson & Johnson) will not have to quarantine for 14 days at home.

This project will provide pools for both professional athletes and amateurs, as well as slides and water games for children to enjoy. The provincial and federal governments are together investing $20 million into this project.
