The federal government laid out its COVID-19 proof-of-vaccination mandate for domestic travel this week. But you still have questions. We answer them here.

Will the government allow a 3rd shot for those who have mixed vaccines so they can fulfil November travel plans?
For domestic travel, your two mixed doses of Health Canada-approved vaccines are fine and entirely acceptable.
Travelling internationally is not as straightforward, as countries have their own specific rules with respect to entry, vaccination status and whether a quarantine is required.
The National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) has not yet recommended a third shot simply for the ability of international travel.
This week, Manitoba announced it would also offer a 3rd shot of an mRNA vaccine to anyone who got a full mixed series, or two doses of AstraZeneca, or one dose of Janssen.
I got a vaccine not approved in Canada. Can I get another set of vaccines so I can travel?
Eligibility for a new set of vaccines is at the discretion of each province or territory, as they are responsible for vaccine eligibility and distribution.
Many do currently offer an additional shot to individuals already vaccinated against COVID-19 with a vaccine not approved by Health Canada, including British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario, and Nova Scotia.
It is recommended that anyone who received a COVID-19 vaccine not approved in Canada contact their local health authority for information about getting a Health Canada-approved vaccine.
