The ArriveCAN app continues to strand Canadians abroad, condemn innocent people to house arrest and scare away thousands of American tourists from Canadian border towns.
Regardless, none of it appears to have shaken Ottawa’s resolve to make the glitch-prone smartphone app a permanent feature of the Canadian border.
Last week, a contingent of Boy Scouts became stranded in Zurich, Switzerland, after missing their Air Canada flight due to delays caused by ArriveCAN. The group was forbidden from boarding after check-in agents found that their ArriveCAN submission was incomplete. “By the time they got everything sorted out, the check-in desk closed,” Karina Vega, mother of one of the stranded scouts, told CTV.
