(LifeSiteNews) — New information shows that over a million-and-a-half travelers have entered Canada since the beginning of the year without using the Liberal government’s mandatory ArriveCAN quarantine monitoring app.
As reported by the National Post, a document tabled in the House of Commons last week shows that out of the 38.5 million travelers who have entered Canada from both land and air since the beginning of the year until early September, 1,651,900 “presented themselves at the border for entry into Canada without having submitted their public health information through ArriveCAN prior to arrival.”
Despite this widespread disregard for the mandate, Jennifer Lutfallah, the vice president of the Public Health Agency of Canada, reported that just 190 fines for failing to use ArriveCAN had been given out by August 19, leading many to speculate why the app was created and mandated in the first place.
