杜魯多宣布, 封鎖邊境. 禁止非加拿大人和非永久居民入境. 而加拿大人的直系家屬，外交人員，機組人員及美國公民獲得豁免。
杜魯多說，所有出現病徵的人士將不能登上飛機返回本國，渥太華會向無病徵，返回本國的國民提供協助及資金，而從今個星期三起，本國只有四個機場接受國際航班，分別是溫哥華國際機場，多倫多皮爾遜機場，滿地可杜魯多國際機場，以及卡加利國際機場，加強篩查。商用及貿易用航班不受影響，需要保障本國供應鏈開放。

Canada to bar entry to all travellers who are not citizens or permanent residents
Canada is barring entry to all travellers who are not Canadian citizens or permanent residents, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced today — one of a set of extraordinary new measures being introduced to stop the spread of COVID-19.
There will be exceptions for air crew, diplomats, immediate family members of citizens and, "at this time," U.S. citizens, Trudeau said.
The prime minister also said no one who is displaying symptoms will be permitted to board a flight to Canada, and that air operators will be required to complete a basic health assessment of every passenger based on guidelines from the Public Health Agency of Canada.
"I know this news will spark concern among Canadians travelling abroad. I want to assure you that our government will not leave you unsupported," he said.
"To help asymptomatic Canadians to return home, our government will set up a support program for Canadians who need to get on a plane. Canadian travellers will be able to get financial assistance to help them with the costs of returning home or temporarily covering basic needs while they wait to come back to Canada."
Trudeau also said international flights will be permitted to land only at the international airports in Montreal, Toronto, Calgary and Vancouver, in order to enhance screening.
"I know that these measures are far-reaching. They are exceptional circumstances calling for exceptional measures," he said.
CBC News is streaming the prime minister's comments live.
The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) is stepping up manpower, educational materials and screening measures at airports and all other entry points to Canada to help stop the spread of COVID-19.
Beginning today, all incoming travellers, no matter where their country of origin is, will be asked if they are experiencing symptoms such as coughing, difficulty breathing or fever. They also will need to acknowledge that they are being asked to self-isolate for 14 days if they're arriving from any international location.
