Governor General Julie Payette says it's the duty of every Canadian to adhere to public health measures.
She said these measures are aimed at curbing the spread of COVID-19.
She says in a video statement we owe it to front-line health workers, seniors, our loved ones and other people's loved ones to make the necessary sacrifices.
Payette says vaccines give hope but there aren't yet enough to go around.
She says keeping apart, minimizing movements and following restrictions are still the only ways to get the pandemic under control.
