Global Affairs Canada is now telling Canadians in Puerto Vallarta and Guadalajara to head to airports only if they have a confirmed flight, "and it's safe to do so," two days after violence erupted across Mexico.

"The situation in Mexico is becoming more stable … though the volatility and instability differs throughout the country," Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand told reporters in Ottawa on Tuesday morning.

"For that reason, we are advising Canadians who remain in Mexico at this time to follow the advice of local authorities."

CBC News has reached out to GAC multiple times for clarity on that advice and not yet heard back.

But according to a government news release in Jalisco state, all economic and productive activities there were scheduled to resume Tuesday, including the reopening of self-service stores, convenience stores, wholesale markets, banking institutions and intercity transport routes.
