In a news release, Transport Canada said the first passenger was fined $2,500 for presenting an “altered COVID-19 test” and then knowingly boarding a flight from the Dominican Republic to Toronto on Feb. 8.
The second passenger, who flew from the United States to Toronto on April 3, was fined $6,500 for the same reason. It’s also alleged that the passenger also made a false declaration about their health status.
