Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has consulted the premiers on additional border and travel measures that could help slow the community spreading of COVID-19.

In a call late Tuesday the first ministers discussed the COVID-19 Omicron variant of concern, which is rapidly spreading around the world.

The highly transmissible strain has been confirmed in more than 60 countries -- including Canada -- as well as 30 U.S. states. Government House leader Mark Holland announced that the Liberals will "greatly reduce" the number of their MPs in the chamber and intend to hold entirely virtual caucus meetings for the time being.

P.E.I.'s chief public health officer, Dr. Heather Morrison, said starting on Friday, people arriving on the Island will be required to isolate until they receive the results of a negative COVID-19 test. New restrictions on private indoor gatherings will come into effect, limiting the number of people to 20.
