This is just going to keep lazy people from doing things.

You also have an AHS record and you can easily take a screenshot.

Look, if someone wants to risk a fraud charge, yes, they can forge a record. There’s no foolproof system to prevent dishonest people from being dishonest. But you can do what you can to prevent it.

I'm vaccinated. No problem. Still not happening.

This is why I wish there is an un-thank button on CP.

I use Clear for air travel, love it.

Any idea how it "links" to your vaccine records? I have my index card vaccine record, which I self reported on my health insurance website.

Wonder if you just take a photo or something?

I expect there will be a national vaccine passport in the near future that standardizes this.

I will gladly take all unwanted Flames and Stampeder tickets.

You get a nice pdf with your name and vaccine history.

Of course my name is somehow wrong in the MyHealth app, and they don't know how to fix it, but that is my problem and hopefully a one off.

I have the AHS app, that's first result that comes up, but I don't see any option for immunization records on it.

How does that happen without the help of our garbage provincial government?

[Reggie Dunlop]

The Flames should hold a Theoren Fleury Jersey Number Retirement Night... just to see if he would show up for it.

Might be a star though. On the arm.

Or maybe that for the anti vaxxers??

Well, first off all, they are probably thinking of social media, pundits, and the 24 hour news cycle. Those tell you how to feel about facts or the events of the day.

If you want news, just straight news, watch the morning, noon, or evening news on CTV, Global, CityTV, whatever. All they have time to do is report what's going on. It's as unbiased reporting as you get. And you can always check out feeds from the Associated and Canadian Press.

It's not that difficult to consume news and stay informed without muddying your perspective. Maybe I'm just more media literate than the average person, but it always surprises me when people bemoan this topic.

Reuters is my go to for straight fact reporting.

People need to stop with the "it's all biased, so you can't trust anything" bull####. It's a cop out. There's plenty of quality news sources, just don't choose the ones that shout crazy editorials at you and you'll be fine.

Makes it easy to know who to drop though.

Watching seemingly normal people from your past come out of the woodwork as complete and total loons is actually the only thing I miss about social media. I deleted mine a few years ago and undoubtedly have missed some real gems lately.

This makes me ecstatic.

Completely agree. This is just the best we have at the moment.

Haha, great idea.

Yes, missing the Stamps game is equivalent to 6 million Jews being exterminated. Any other dumb false equivalencies you want to share?

I didn't know the wacko street preacher guy was on CP. Lame.

[ResAlien]

What an absolute muppet.

Cheers to my fellow lower-rung holdouts in this two-tier society. Judging by all the hatred of those cheering this on, I can safely say that what was left of my fandom of Flames hockey will now die quietly and peacefully. On the bright side, I can always remember the 2004 run, and the 1989 win.

Here's the thing... I'm NEVER going to get that shot. See you all in 2023, when the safety data trials finally get released.

[bdubbs]

Why do the lower-rung holdouts always have to announce their departure as if any of us high-rung science-lovers care?
