What would happen to someone in Canada on an expiring visitor visa if Canada is closing the borders and the home country is a COVID-19 hotspot?
Would they still have to leave? If yes, how?
Yes, complete quarantine. People can’t even leave their homes.
Also I believe that some emergency flights are allowed but I’m not sure. The country is Italy.
There’s definitely some sort of travel ban.
EDIT: I was reading that the Italian military is surrounding airports and only people with special permits can leave their homes and enter the airports.

I know, this doesn’t really represent my situation.
I already applied for an extension since I’m going to apply for inland PR.
I need some documentation from Italy but all services are shut down due to quarantine and no one knows when they’ll be able to issue the documents I need.
I was supposed to submit my PR application next month but the COVID-19 situation is slowing the system down.
However this is more of an hypothetical scenario that I was curious about.
There are no flight restrictions into Italy that I can see. And from what I read, people are still going to work. Unless there is absolutely no way to enter Italy as a citizen, I don’t see anything stopping you from returning if you have to.

There's nothing stopping you from returning to Italy. Flights are still going. However you should assume it may be a while before you can return to Canada.
