I'm disturbed that with the home test, i'll have to connect and have a video call while self administering the PCR. How is this legal? I'd rather pay to have the PCR done at an approved lab, then be ordered to have these people watch me on a camera in my home do this.
Even the in-flight cabin crew were exasperated with the masking policy, as when you travel internationally it has been abolished. It's extremely goofy to be in airports, city streets and venues, completely exposed and then as a Canadian get on an airplane to mask up with hundreds of people who have been around 10,000's of people.
There is simply no more logic left in this scenario. It's embarrassing.
I'm not an anti-vaxxer or denier, i've been vaxxed twice... Probably had Covid twice after vax (hey, when i'm sick I stay home and away from people) but this current scenario is a wild over reach.

They will stop bothering you after three or four days. I was randomly selected this summer along with my kid. I ordered the tests online but I never bothered doing them. They called every few hours for either three or four days and finally gave up. Maybe there is a black mark on my profile for future travel but who knows?
Random road gear grinder is speed limit changes that make no sense. I just noticed that at bottom of Nose Hill Drive at the intersection with 87th Street the speed limit drops from 60 to 50 for 100m. It drops right before the light and goes back to 60 right after the light. It is also for south/west bound and not the other side of the road going east/north. I don't know how long it has been this way but today is the first time that I actually noticed the 50 zone. It is so stupid.
