Elderly man threatened with $5K fine at Pearson Airport over ArriveCAN app (video)

Sharing is Caring!

Over the weekend, a video of an elderly man held at Pearson Airport and threatened with a $5,000 fine for not having the ArriveCAN app went viral.

The video was originally posted on TikTok July 16 by the man’s daughter, Nancy, with the caption: Scrap the ArriveCan App!!

The video shows the pair arriving at Pearson Airport together. Both have their proof of vaccine documents, however, the father, 86, does not own a cellphone and therefore does not have the ArriveCAN app.
