Atlantic Premiers Plan To Reopen Atlantic Bubble Next Month

The Atlantic bubble will be reopening by April 19th.

Premier Iain Rankin confirmed the news this afternoon shortly before a joint statement from the four Atlantic Premiers was released.

The Premiers say the reopening depends on COVID-19 case numbers staying low in the region, as well as containment of outbreaks and ongoing advice from health officials.  

The tentative reopening date comes after the Premiers met virtually last night.

Travel restrictions among the four Atlantic provinces were re-introduced after an increase in COVID-19 cases.
