OTTAWA — China has lifted a pandemic ban on group tours to several countries, including the United States and Australia, but tourists are still be barred from group visits to Canada.
The change announced by China’s culture and tourism ministry last week allows Chinese and online travel agencies to book group tours and packages for Chinese tourists in 70 more countries all over the world.
Canada was quietly left off the list.
The reason is related to Canada’s recent focus on foreign interference, as first reported by CBC News.
