The holidays are in full swing, meaning we’re closing in on a very busy time for travel. If you’re planning to get away soon, it’s always important to check if there is a travel advisory for your destination in case there are any precautions you need to take or safety issues to know about.
The Government of Canada regularly updates its travel advisory list.
There are four categories of travel advisories from the government: take normal security precautions, exercise a high degree of caution, avoid non-essential travel, and avoid all travel.
