We got the "you've been selected for a random test" when we arrived at Toronto International airport on September 19th. We'd been stuck on the plane we hike only 50 passengers were let off at a time. Then there was a long delay to collect our luggage. We were tired so didn't want to search for the apparent testing site somewhere at the airport. The following morning we tried to pick up a testing kit but the first location had run out of kits. After walking well over a mile we got a kit. We went back to the hotel and then discovered you needed to do it with online assistance. I'd done one before so we just did the test and mailed it. The return form was clearly designed for residents only. The only address we had was our hotel and that was for 2 nights only. There then followed a series of calls whuch w we ignored. They finally stopped after about 3 days.
Hooray, these unworkable measures have now been dropped. If the idea was to pick up new variants then surely there must have been better ways to do that?
