Despite Trudeau's new travel advisory that asks Canadians to avoid non-essential travel, Conservative MPs are allowed to travel abroad over the holiday.
A spokesperson for the Conservative leader Erin O'Toole said that the advisory only allows vaccinated adults to make better decisions.
"This applies to MPs and all Canadians," said O'Toole's spokesperson. "As such, members of the Conservative caucus can continue to travel internationally."
Upon hearing the news of the government's new restrictions, one up-and-coming MP asked "am I going to live the rest of my life like this?"
The NDP and the Liberal Party, on the other hand, have both told their MPs that they cannot travel, according to The Canadian Press.
Liberal House Leader Mark Holland has already said that he cancelled a trip to celebrate a family member's 70th birthday and will restrict his Christmas to 20 people.
Recently, Trudeau's health minister said that that pandemic-related precautions may go on "months, possibly even years."
The health minister made these comments in response to a question about whether the Trudeau government will redefine "fully-vaccinated" for only those who have had a booster shot.
Previously, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said that vaccines would spell the end of the pandemic. "Normality, as it was before, could not return until there is a vaccine and it could be in a year, a year and a half," said Trudeau.
