The Canadian border is reopening on November 8, 2021. Many of our OPPA members are planning out of country travel for the first time since the start of the pandemic.

We encourage members to check up to date official Government of Canada travel information specific to COVID-19 travel, testing and borders, travelling to, from and within Canada, immigration, passports, transportation regulations and the movement of goods at Travel.gc.ca.

A comprehensive media article on what you need to know was published by CTV on October 14, 2021. Read the article here. 

OPP Association members who plan to travel out of the country may wish to visit the benefits section of the OPPA website at OPPA.ca/Benefits to review out of country coverage. (Note: You must be logged in to the members only side of the website to access. If you require assistance to login, please email oppa@oppa.ca.)

Members with general or non-emergency questions about out of country or travel assistance coverage can contact Target Benefit Administrators at 1-888-660-6055 or email target@wlvinc.com.
