Country Advisories – Homework Task Government of Canada Government of Canada (travel.gc.ca) 1) Choose a country where you would like to travel 2) Identify if there are any advisories. If there are, what is the rating and why? 3) Use the tabs along the top of the page (Advisories, Security, Entry Exit Requirements, Health, Laws and Culture, Disasters and Climate) to learn more about the current situation in the country 4) If your country of choice did not have an advisory, choose one that does so you can see how the government warns Canadian citizens about potential issues while abroad. 5) How might these advisories be biased? Why might it be useful to consult a variety of security sources before we travel?
