A federal judge has rejected a request from two former Canada Border Services Agency employees for a judicial review of an investigator’s report that led to their suspensions over allegations of misconduct related to the ArriveCan app.

Antonio Utano and Cameron MacDonald, who were previously employed by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) and responsible for the initial execution and delivery of the ArriveCan application, were both suspended from their government positions without pay on Jan. 11 over misconduct allegations. They have not been charged with any crime to date.
