Clarification on the quarantine requirements for visitors

[supervisa099]

My parents are visiting me, and they'll need to quarantine for 14 days. I live in a 1-bedroom apartment, with a separate living room. Would anyone know if it will be acceptable to put a room separator between the living room (where I'll spend all my time) and the bedroom (where they will spend all their time). We'll never use the common areas (such as the kitchen) at the same time.

Thanks in advance!

This will work if you quarantine with them for the full 14 days.

@scylla Thank you very much for the response! May I please know the source/reference for this? Or would you know if there's some authority I can contact to confirm?

Thank you very much again!

No it won’t. The rules have changed with delta. They will have to stay somewhere else or you’ll have to stay somewhere else.

Ah - interesting. I wasn't aware. Thanks for the correction.

My answer was incorrect. See above.

Can you please copy and paste the text which explains your answer here? I didn't find anything related to that in the provided link.

I found this:

Quarantining with others in the same household
Mandatory quarantine only applies to travellers who have entered Canada.

Travellers who are under quarantine must avoid contact with anyone they did not travel with:

• stay in separate rooms
• use separate bathrooms (if possible)
• keep surfaces clean
• avoid sharing personal items
• limit interactions with others in the household

Co-habitants should also follow the guidance of their local public health authorities.

Thanks in advance!
