OTTAWA, April 6 (Reuters) - Canada's hospitalizations are
surging, intensive care beds are filling up, and COVID-19
variants are spreading as a third wave of the pandemic sweeps
across much of the country, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said
on Tuesday.
"Around the world, countries are facing a very serious third
wave of this pandemic," Trudeau said at a news conference. "And
right now, so is Canada."
