Canadian ministers and health officials addressed the media on Friday, after an announcement that Parliament will be suspended for five weeks amid the spread of the novel coronavirus, known as COVID-19. Officials advised Canadians against all non-essential travel outside of the country during this time.
Officials from the political parties have been in discussions over recent days about whether the House of Commons should return from its scheduled break next week, and on Friday, Conservative House Leader Mark Strahl and Bloc Québécois Leader Yves-François Blanchet said all parties had reached an agreement to suspend.
Also, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is self-quarantining for 14 days after his wife, Sophie Grégoire Trudeau, tested positive for COVID-19.
