He said basically you had to have an internet connection in order to access this secure portal to get your paper work etc. Done. You were then instructed to make your way to the airport
He said he was in contact with Canadians and people who had filed the proper paperwork but they were being turned away at the airport because their papers were not in colour…
He said just over 2000 people had gotten the proper documentation and now Canada is saying barley 1000 people got out. So basically half the people who were eligible did not get out.
He always seemed like a pretty straight forward guy and if he’s working for non-profits I don’t really see him having any reason to lie or make Trudeau etc. Look bad. If what he was saying is true it’s pretty fucking terrible..

Oh I remember Kevin, he retired from news cause he couldn't deal with reporting negative news.
I don't blame canada for the rules and regulations. Yes the situation is bad and it doesn't seem legit on minor detail on what you describled.
Not sure if it's cause to prevent fraud or why they are so strict, I'm assuming rules are rules, just like how you can't use your passport if the pages are wet. Learned it the hard way. Had to stay until they issue an emergency passport and waited for days.
But yes, they situation they are in now is a totally diff.
