You also need to have downloaded your proof of (double) vaccination. Nothing else regarding the border has changed, you still need to complete the forms on the ArriveCan App. The whole procedure was easy and as a bonus, I was able to use the BTNX COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Test I had purchased back in November for the tests! I was able to show the certificate to the Border Service Officer using my phone (it specifies that electronic proof of negative test is valid) My appointment was at 11:20AM and I received an E-mail with a certificate you can use for your results by 11:45AM. I went through Rapid Test Canada, who hooks you up with a nurse through video conference who will observe your rapid test by video conference. Luckily for us, the telehealth industry has filled the void. It also must be done the calendar day of your return or one calendar day before your arrival at the border crossing. The test must be taken outside of Canada and it must be administered or observed by a pharmacy, laboratory, healthcare entity or telehealth service. The main change that has been made is that you can now use your Rapid Antigen Test to return to Canada. I know some people have been asking about what you need to go down to the US now that the rules have changed regarding COVID-19 Testing Requirements upon returning to Canada by land border. I’m starting with the food items and the non-food items will be posted a little later. There were so many items (about 500) that I had to split this post into two. I took photos of as many items as I could before my phone ran out of batteries. If you are missing browsing the aisles there, this post is for you. I know a lot of you used to make trips over the border to head to Costco. I made stops at Trader Joe’s, Fred Meyer and Costco! I hope you are all doing well! So I took a trip down to Bellingham this week to stock up on some items that I could not get here in Canada.
