The Public Health Agency of Canada has now listed the criteria for hotels that want to be part of the quarantining for people who have had non-essential trips abroad.
Once it goes into effect, when they arrive the travellers must have a COVID-19 test and book a 3-night stay in a hotel to await the results.
The hotels need to be near one of the four Canadian airports currently accepting international flights, in Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto and Montreal.
They need to be able to provide transportation and contactless meals, free wireless internet access, an organized plan for brief outdoor breaks and being able to report traveller information back to the Public Health Agency including check-in and check-out, and whether the traveller is in compliance of the regulations.
Hotel submissions are due by Wednesday.
The Public Health Agency says even if the tests come back negative, travellers will have to complete their 14-day quarantine upon returning home.
