With this announcement, the Federal Government of Canada makes vaccines mandatory for federal public servants, air, rail, marine workers and travel.?

''Vaccination continues to be a priority for the government as we work to ensure a strong economic recovery and build a safer and healthier Canada for everyone: ''

- The majority of Canadians are vaccinated - '' 82 percent of eligible Canadians have received a double dose of Health Canada-approved vaccines'' - said Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland at the begging of the press conference. - However, to ensure Canada's strong economic recovery, it is crucial all eligible Canadians get fully vaccinated this fall.

- The Federal government of Canada and Prime Minister?Justin Trudeau?continue their ongoing work in ensuring Canada's strong economic recovery. The most effective tool that helps us all in achieving this goal and supports our successful moving on with recovery on all levels is vaccination.?Therefore,?under the new policy, there will be required confirmation/proof of being fully vaccinated against COVID-19 by Oct. 29. Those who don't want to disclosure their vaccination status and don't put in respect to the new policy of the COVID-19 vaccine mandates will face being placed on administrative leave without pay as early as November 15, 2021.?

- As we continue our fight against COVID - 19, our top priority is to keep Canadians safe and stop the virus from spreading and transmission. Anyone who will need to travel by airplane, by train or by marine transportation in Canada will have to prove their vaccination status by Oct. 30 - There will be “limited exemptions,” the federal government has announced.?By the end of November testing will no longer be an option before boarding. Because the top priority is to keep people safe on the job and in our communities.?

- ''If you’ve done the right thing and gotten vaccinated, you deserve the freedom to be safe from COVID-19, to have your kids safe from COVID, to get back to the things you love ” - Justin Trudeau.?

- We had to put in work strict measures because half measures will not help to keep you and your family safe and avoid lockdowns. There is more than enough of the sad and disappointing experience we see in the province of Alberta. We regret the happened experience, and we wish strength and get protected by getting fully vaccinated a soon as possible to all the eligible people of Alberta. The Federal government assists the province at this challenging time in the fight against COVID-19.?

- The Federal government is committed to getting the job done on a vaccine passport for international travel and promote help for provinces and territories with proof of vaccination programs. And alongside all said above, the federal government is going to introduce legislation to make it a criminal offence to threaten or harass health care workers.

''Canadians have sent our government back to work to end this pandemic and move on to better days.'' -?We will work on vaccination, on making life more affordable for the middle class, on fighting climate change and creating good, green jobs, and on building a meaningful path of reconciliation.

- I’m very excited about everything we can achieve together. '' - said, Prime Minister?Justin Trudeau
