Ottawa is making plans to expand the capabilities of its ArriveCAN app even as criticism continues to mount over the mandatory online data-entry system for travellers entering the country. Fully vaccinated Canadians and permanent residents crossing the border were no longer required to quarantine upon their return. The app allowed travellers to take a photo or upload a snapshot of their vaccine documentation into the app before going through customs. They may also be fined $5,000 and face "additional delays at the border for public health questioning," according to Canada's main ArriveCAN information page. This terrible ArriveCan App surveillance experiment needs to end.
