© Nicole Brockbank/CBC Sisters Maddi, left, and Tori Nixon, right, say they were never told one of them had been selected for mandatory random COVID-19 border testing at Toronto Pearson airport when they returned from their vacation in Ireland in late May. It's now been nearly two weeks since the sisters returned home to Oakville, Ont., from their vacation in Ireland and they're still waiting to receive a kit for the random border testing. In a statement, a spokesperson for PHAC acknowledged it was aware of instances where travellers may not have been advised they were selected for the mandatory random testing until receiving the follow-up email. New contracts have been granted, and existing contracts have been extended, to cover border testing services across the country until at least July 31. "I have no problem with actual random testing at the airport," said Maddi Nixon.
