A new lawsuit has been filed against the federal government over the enforcement of the ArriveCan app for individuals entering or re-entering Canada throughout the pandemic.

The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF), a Canadian legal advocacy group, announced in a press release on Feb. 7 that the lawsuit would be filed “on behalf of Canadians who were fined or forced into quarantine for refusing to disclose vaccination status via the federal government’s ArriveCAN software.”
