COVID-19 Response & Protocols

In accordance with federal, provincial and municipal guidelines on Covid-19 for Toronto, the following will be applicable for GBTA Canada Conference 2024 | Toronto:

  • Proof of vaccination is NO LONGER required for conference attendance or to access business & restaurants.
  • Should a delegate have symptoms, been knowingly exposed to someone who has tested positive with Covid-19 within 7 days, or develops symptoms while at the conference, GBTA Canada respectfully requires that individual withdraw their participation thus eliminating exposure and risk to conference attendees, event, and hotel staff.
  • Masks are not required to be worn at the event nor in business or restaurants in the city.


GBTA Canada reserves the right to change these protocols should government regulations be adjusted or should a known outbreak within the conference facility occur.  By attending the conference and picking up a delegate badge at check-in, conference attendees agree to comply with the health and safety protocols listed above.  In addition, by receiving and wearing a GBTA Canada Conference 2024 | Toronto badge, all delegates agree to respect each individual attendee’s comfort level of concern about the ongoing risk of infection from Covid-19. The Covid-19 virus remains in circulation, therefore GBTA Canada advises conference delegates to make choices to protect themselves and those around them from risk or exposure to Covid-19. 

For International Attendees

A Covid test and proof of vaccination is no longer required for entry into Canada. Up to date information on the Canadian Government entry requirements can be found here
