ARRIVECAN to be made PERMANENT

Post by rookiepilot »

https://nationalpost.com/news/arrivecan ... ts-suggest

So says the government. Let me paraphrase what they really mean:

“The security of our border is essential. Imminent upgrades of the app will mandate all travellers to Canada to upload their proof of voting history, favourite photos of Trudeau, and allow us to screen out anyone with unacceptable views.

Racism, homophobic thoughts and anti Liberal party sentiment will not be tolerated. Anti - Liberal sentiments are hateful, and are not the views of true Canadians. Donations to the please Re-elect me for Dictator for life Fund, will be accepted as part of the new App upgrades. Compliance will be considered in your application to enter Canada, and in your Personal Carbon Allowance”.

:lol:

Maybe we shouldn’t be laughing.

Liberals and Klaus Schwab don’t want people flying around polluting the environment. That is reserved for them, not the useless eaters. We have been practicing lockdowns on and off for 2 years to get a taste of what’s coming.

They will make flying so hard as to deter people from even trying.

Driving? Same thing, high fuel costs, stupid communist app tracking you when you return to Canada, fines, etc.

Canada will eventually be full digital currency. It will become permanent like this app and as reliable as Roger’s. looking forward to the day government has full control of our currency and can meter how you spend it, where you spend it, when you spend it.

Imagine a plandemic hits and you tell people stay home. If they don’t listen, you just turn off the ability to transact with business. People will stay home when they can’t buy gas.

Or say you feel like climate change is out of control and you don’t want people to drive as much. You can just meter the digital currency to limit how many litres of gas can be purchased each week.

This is what the socialists want, they hate freedom! Remember the comments on here? Some of the people here said we are to dumb to make decisions and we need government control to keep us safe! Keep it coming guys! We need gov to keep us all safe! Bring on the apps, bring on the digital currency. We need big government controls. Our kids need to be conditioned and brainwashed through school that this is normal, this way they will just accept this as the way life should be!

You should write headlines for the Daily Express, Rookie.

Anyway, this is a big nothing burger. The app will be used for the stuff that you already give to customs on the form, so it is just making things more efficient. But carry on with your hysteria.

My post was totally tongue in cheek, and hopefully it stays that way. I did a similar customs form overseas. I get it. Just the annoying self serve world we all now live in.

My airline posts by contrast, aren't tongue in cheek.

Fox news? I found it on my trusty liberal new source

https://www.cbc.ca/radio/spark/if-we-bu ... -1.6312460

And direct from the central bank.

Reading some of the comments on the external links makes me chuckle. Especially the part where Americans don't like the app.

If memory serves correctly, they were the first ones to implement extra paperwork when crossing the border, their ESTA program. A few years ago Europe implemented something similar, and now Canada.

I don't like either one of them, but acting as if Canada is the only one doing something like this, is a bit unjust.

American citizens don’t need to do any ESTA stuff to re-enter their own country.

Good point, that is a major difference. That does make it a bit more iffy...

Just wondering if anyone has info on what they do about people who do not have smartphones? How do they cross the border? I am thinking about going back to an old school flip phone. (Yes you can still get them) :wink:

Also, can you delete the arrive can app between travels and reinstall it?

You can fill it out on any computer and print it out.

And……..?

ArriveCAN is literally the easiest thing to use. I downloaded it and did the entire registration in the 5 minute check in line in a Mexican airport.

Once you’ve done your first registration it’s even easier.

A huge part of the delays at Canadian airports are people not filling out an electronic form that’s even simpler than a customs declaration before they get to customs.
