Some 228 Canadians began a two-week quarantine at Canadian Forces Base Trenton, in Ontario, on Tuesday after being repatriated from a cruise ship that’s had a cluster of novel coronavirus cases.

A government-chartered plane carrying Canadians from the Grand Princess cruise ship landed at the military base at about 6 a.m., though not all the 237 Canadians from the ship were on board.
