The full text of the order is now out.
They added scenarios to exclude full hotel quaratine for those that leave to seek medical care, attending sports events, and other compassionate grounds.
There's also a vague exception for exclusion if one participates in projects (I'm assuming the YYC pilot project) but not sure.
I've been following the new quarantine requirements with interest/dread, since my family lives outside Canada, and I plan to visit them this year whether the government likes it or not. I've found this forum very helpful, and decided to post.
I read through the above new rules, and noted a few details that haven't been specified:
1) Per paragraph 1.01 (a), you're supposed to remain at the quarantine hotel until you receive a negative result from the entry test. What happens if by the time you need to checkout on day 3, your result has not arrived yet? Would you need to remain at the hotel indefinitely (paying another $2000 for every three days), go to the government quarantine facility as if you've tested positive, or able to leave and go home for the remaining time?
2) Per 1.01 (c), it's as if the default quarantine period is now 28 days, and you need to receive a negative result on the second test done during your quarantine in order to make it 14. Would be good to get more details on how this second test will be performed, if it's a self-administered test, whether someone will come pick it up, or if you need to mail it yourself somehow.
3) Per 1.4 (b), you need to keep evidence of negative test results, I'm assuming in case you get a visit and need to show proof. So it sounds like the government won't have a record of negative test results?
