I have no source but the dread god Finagle and his mad prophet Murphy, but since I just got a test that seems a near certainty.Quote:

Canadian border today on ready to Montreal took 3 minutes at 0900.
Checked my antigen test result but didn't confirm my vaccination status.

One of my best friends did a stint with the Canadian Feds. He likened it to the Ministry of Silly WalksQuote:

I've been up once in March and once in April and didn't get the random test either time (my wife either).Quote:

ArriveCAN still required.Quote:

Got it. Thanks!
In April I showed up in Rooseville. Was using my arrivecan code from previous November. Border guy said no go. Told me to go into customs building and redo. For some reason arrivecan would not take my vaccination card. Agent inside offered to help. He could not get it to work either. After a couple of tries he gave me the phone back. Said I trust you, have a nice trip.
If you are flying be prepared for long waits in the plane after landing and then long lines in arrivals. Don't even think about connecting flights unless there is several hours to make the connection.
Why?Quote:

Apparently Canadian airports are a shit show right now.
Not what I heard from my clients this weekend (8 MTBers, flying in from SFO, Newark and LAX).... said customs through Vancouver was super easy.Quote:

Isn't it just Pearson (Toronto)?Quote:

No doubt, glad the pressure campaign worked. Leaving the country next week so I'm pretty happy about the timing.Quote:
