Any updates out there on whether RABCs will be allowed after August 9?

When I pulled our Quetico permit for late August, I was informed that the RABC would not be available and that my visit would only be possible via "land crossing" at a border. We're going in via Beaverhouse. More here. When the RABC was available, most of us filed for it long before our entry into Canada. Entry now requires proof of vaccination and a negative COVID test within 72 hours of entry--the RABC can't accommodate that 72-hour test requirement.

The proof of vaccination is easy enough, but How does a person go about finding someone to administer the Covid test?

Walgreens and CVS are doing ID Now tests.

Vaulthealth.com offers a PCR test in your home and then sends you the results via email. My company has been using them for travel requirements for the past year-very reliable.

How much do these tests cost (assuming results accepted by Canada)? Any of these tests free?

It varies- in many states COVID tests are now free. For example, I am in Wyoming and I just order online-identify it is for travel-and it is free. No limit on the number of tests. I think the average is between $100-$200 and most insurance will pay.

It's also free at Walgreens and maybe CVS.

They're free in MN as well.
