Transport Canada said it will align with a new U.S. policy that no longer requires passengers to remove their shoes during the airport security screening process.

U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem made the policy shift announcement on July 8, saying that she believed the change could be made while maintaining high security standards.
