Hmm not sure but apparently they did all this and had no problem getting back in. Maybe the Walgreens test document can be scanned into the app?
My wife is heading down for a little vacay in a couple weeks so I can confirm it’s all legit when she gets back. She’s the guinea pig before we take the whole fam down to the in laws in Feb.
I got some answers today Steve, So you give Walgreens a US address where you are staying. Then give them your email address and cell number. They email you the results. The only one interested in your covid results are the people at check in at the airport before you depart. On the Arrive Can App they ask you 2 questions in regard to the covid test. First they ask if you got a molecular covid test within 72 hours of your flight. The second question is if you tested negative. Canada Customs doesn't care whats on the test for address because they probably won't even look at it.

What I don't understand is why Walgreens wants no money for the NAAT test and $250 for the PCR test? Both are acceptable to fly back to Canada?

That’s crazy. Must be so relaxing jumping through circus hoops in order to go away for 7 to 10 days no thanks.

Nothing to do with shots. I’ve been to Mexico lots of times. On Direct flights only. Flying sucks. Passing tests sucks. No fuss. Even vaxed up I’m not sure it’s worth it for me.

Better than staying home. Its more work but we have our freedom at a higher level than the non vaxers do. Thats why we chose to get the shot.

That's not freedom IMO. I would have thought everyone got the shot to protect themselves from this life threatening virus and to protect everyone else... Not for travel....

What happens when that level that they set is un-reachable?

I’ll leave that for you guys to
Worry about. I’m on my 4 th rum at the condo and golfing at 10 am with buddies tomorrow. Racing Saturday and Sunday and golfing and drinking every other day. Life is good. That’s freedom to me. Haven’t died from the shot, haven’t had side effects, just living my life. When you realize in 2 years you gave up
2 years of your life because you couldn’t go anywhere don’t cry to us. It’s your choice and this is mine. Don’t worry about me. 🍺🍺

I haven't given up anything that's worth risking my life. I'm not worried, it's just nice to hear people taking the juice for every other reason than health...

Which headlines lol.... 99.7% survivable... Without the juice, that's good enough for me. But you didn't take it for your health anyhow lol. Anyhow....
Yes I did Wes. I have an elderly mother that I deal with her affairs. I did it for her. Look I’m on holidays. I’m not going to waste my evening arguing with you about vaccines. You know thousands of people that died from the jab. I know zero. I’m living my live pre 2020. Go to the Covid thread and argue with someone else. I’ve got some rum to drink. Lol. Have a good night! 🍺🍺

In case you missed the headlines. The juice is far safer than the virus. I’ll play those odds any day

Peace and love will set us all free. That comes from each other. Not shots and temporary fun passes. If that fails........ meet at the river
