And that’s what it’s about and that’s how it’s being presented. So it’s an app that’s available both on mobile phones, or you can use the web app. So to collect information about who you are, where you’ve been, where you’re going, your vaccine information, test information, if that’s related to your travel or to your history and your plans for quarantine, should you need to do such thing. So I haven’t used it myself, but it’s an app that the federal government has made mandatory for travellers coming into the country to collect information because of the pandemic. So for those who haven’t travelled internationally during the pandemic and I guess I’m one of those I think you are too, can you just describe what the ArriveCAN app is? She’s a partner at Digital Public and a co-founder of Tech Reset Canada. Due to a technical glitch with the ArriveCAN app, a small number of travellers received an erroneous notification instructing people to quarantine.īut why are we still using ArriveCAN? Why is it still mandatory? What purpose does it now serve? Is it still for quarantines and contact tracing? Or is it now an attempt to modernize the border? Is it helping with the mass at our airports or hurting? Will we use this app forever? Will it always be mandatory? What does a looming September deadline mean for the future of our border experience and for Canadians’ digital privacy? I’m Jordan Heath-Rawlings. Passengers arriving at Toronto, Pearson and Vancouver International Airports can now use ArriveCAN to complete customs declaration forms before landing in Canada.
#Does fitday have an app plus
Two plus years later, the federal government’s ArriveCAN app is still doing all those things, and it is working even harder on the streamlining part of it. Like so many things created in the early days of the pandemic, this was supposed to be a short-term fix, a way for Canadians returning home or foreigners entering the country to follow the government’s strict COVID protocols, to provide contact tracing information and sorry if I snicker a bit here, to streamline the border entry process. You’re listening to a Frequency Podcast Network production in association with CityNews. In the meantime, they are having a big sale in honour of sponsoring The Big Story, and you can head to Douglas.ca/TheBigStory, and get what many are calling Canada’s best mattress and follow along to see if I will eventually be joining them. We’ve got a few of them coming up as I record this, so we’ll talk about that the next time.
One major thing I’m looking forward to testing is the cooling gel foam that is meant to keep me cool on hot nights. I am also writing this spot while I work on the mattress, and this isn’t in any of their ad copy, but as somebody who’s been working from home for two-plus years now, a mattress that is firm enough to both sleep on and work on is important to me personally.
Personally, as I record this, I’m on night five with this mattress, and I like it a lot so far. Over the next little while on this show, you will hear my unfiltered thoughts on the Douglas Mattress, a made-in-Canada eco-conscious mattress that comes with a 120-night guarantee. And I am happy to report that day has finally arrived. That’s right, a mattress to test and report on in ad breaks. But there was one thing missing before I finally felt like a real big-time podcaster.
I’ve been hosting this podcast for four years now.
