                  The latest:

                  Ontario is seeking to suspend the arrival of international students in an effort to slow the spread of COVID-19, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Friday.

                  Premier Doug Ford made the request on a first ministers’ call and was the only premier to do so, Trudeau told a news conference.

                  “Many provinces feel that they’re doing a good job of managing these students, and that they’re not a huge source of cases,” Trudeau said.

                  “But last night, Premier Ford told me that he wanted us to suspend the arrival of international students coming into Ontario.”

                  Trudeau said the government came up with a mechanism for the provinces to do just that earlier in the pandemic. The Ford government would have to send a list of institutions that will no longer accept international travellers.

                  “My office is currently working with premier Ford’s office and the authorities in Ontario to do a followup to make sure that this approach is formalized,” Trudeau said.

                  Ford has repeatedly blamed the COVID-19 pandemic’s third wave on “porous borders,” including at a news conference on Friday.

                  “We will never get ahead of this virus if we can’t keep these deadly new variants out of our country,” he said. 

                  Ford did not address his request to bar the entry of international students at the news conference.

                  A spokeswoman for the premier noted that the province has not made a formal request regarding international students, but said the federal government must take further action to prevent more contagious variants of the coronavirus from entering the country.

                  -From The Canadian Press, last updated at 4 p.m. ET


                  What’s happening across Canada

                  As of 2:35 p.m. ET Friday, Canada had reported 1,216,408 confirmed cases of COVID-19, with 82,966 considered active. A CBC tally of deaths stood at 24,204.

                  Statistics Canada reported Friday that Canada’s economy expanded at a 6.5 per cent pace in the first three months of 2021.

                  Gross domestic product expanded by 0.4 per cent in February alone, the agency reported. Coupled with preliminary data for March showing 0.9 per cent growth, putting Canada on track for healthy growth for the quarter.

                  Nova Scotia reported 67 new cases of COVID-19 on Friday, and eight new cases were reported in Newfoundland and Labrador. Fifteen new cases were reported in New Brunswick, while Prince Edward Island reported two new cases.

                  In Quebec, health officials reported 1,041 new cases of COVID-19 on Friday and 13 additional deaths. 

                  Quebecers aged 50 to 59 became eligible to book a COVID-19 vaccine appointment Friday. The province says appointments should be open to everyone 18 and older by May 14.

                  WATCH | May will be ‘transformative’ month in Ontario, says doctor:

                  Significantly more people are going to be vaccinated against COVID-19 in Ontario in May because of a big boost in supply, broader eligibility and targeted programs, says infectious diseases specialist Dr. Isaac Bogoch. 4:39

                  In Ontario, Premier Doug Ford said Friday that his province will have delivered a first dose of COVID-19 vaccine to 40 per cent of its adult population as of the end of the day.

                  The update on the vaccination progress came on a day when Canada’s most populous province reported 3,887 new cases of COVID-19 and 21 additional deaths.

                  COVID-19 hospitalizations decreased by 47 since the last report, for a total of 2,201. There was virtually no change in the intensive care numbers, with 883 people in ICU as a result of COVID-related illness.

                  Manitoba reported 295 new COVID-19 cases and one additional death on Friday, as Saskatchewan reported 274 new cases and four additional deaths.

                  On Thursday, Alberta reported 2,048 new cases and three additional deaths.

                  WATCH | Why it’s difficult to pinpoint herd immunity:

                  Health officials say Canadians should expect more freedoms once roughly 75 per cent of adults have received one dose of vaccine, but they also say determining when there will be COVID-19 herd immunity is a trickier milestone to pinpoint. 2:02

                  In British Columbia, health officials reported 853 new cases of COVID-19 on Thursday and one additional death. COVID-19 hospitalizations stood at 503, with 178 patients in intensive care.

                  Across the North, Nunavut reported 11 new cases of COVID-19 on Friday.

                  There were no new cases reported on Thursday by health officials in Yukon or the Northwest Territories.

                  As of late Friday afternoon, more than 150.8 million cases of COVID-19 had been reported worldwide, according to a coronavirus tracking database maintained by Johns Hopkins University. The reported global death toll stood at more than 3.1 million.

                  In the Americas, the United States announced that it will restrict travel from India starting next week, citing a devastating rise in COVID-19 cases in the country and the emergence of potentially dangerous coronavirus variants.

                  In Mexico, President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said Friday he expects the U.S. to send Mexico around five million more doses of the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine to help with its efforts to inoculate the population.

                  WATCH | Significant need to speed up vaccination in Latin America: experts

                  Latin America is seeing a dramatic rise in COVID-19 infections and needs vaccines and other supports to help swamped health systems, says the Pan American Health Organization. 1:06

                  In Brazil, Health Minister Marcelo Queiroga told a World Health Organization briefing that countries should share spare vaccine doses with his country to help the global fight against COVID-19, including the spread of new variants.

                  Queiroga said Brazil — a country that has seen more than 400,000 COVID-19 deaths — had given out 41 million vaccine doses but needed more supplies to meet a target of 2.4 million doses per day. 

                  In the Asia-Pacific region, Pakistan’s minister for planning and development warned that the number of critically ill COVID-19 patients is rapidly increasing and the next few weeks will be crucial. Asad Umar, who oversees Pakistan’s response to the coronavirus, said as many as 5,360 patients with COVID-19 were on oxygen support at hospitals.

                  Also Friday, India set another global record with 386,452 daily coronavirus cases. The country’s Health Ministry reported 3,498 deaths in the last 24 hours, bringing the total to 208,330.

                  India’s pandemic response has been marred by insufficient data. An online appeal — signed by over 350 scientists Friday afternoon — asks the government to release data about the sequencing of virus variants, testing, recovered patients and how people were responding to vaccines

                  Residents in Cambodia’s capital gathered to demand food from the government, outraged at what they called inadequate aid distribution during a tough lockdown that bars people from leaving their homes.

                  In Europe, Italy is nearing its goal of administering half a million COVID-19 vaccines a day.

                  In Africa, Uganda has detected the variant associated with India, stirring fears the East African nation could suffer a resurgence of cases just when its outbreak has waned, a senior health official said.

                  In the Middle East, the number of reported COVID-19 cases was approaching 2.5 million, with more than 71,300 reported deaths.
