Yup coz I requested for a room change, which was denied. I was asked to leave home or try a 2nd hotel after payment. Also no refunds from the 1st hotel whatsoever. So the idea here is, if you paid for the hotel under GAA, then covid is contained automatically
FROM TODAY YOU CAN BOOK YOUR MANDATORY 3 DAY HOTEL QUARANTINE - GATHER HERE!!!

How long is this hotel quarantine thingy gonna last??I'll be arriving by September.Any chances that hotel quarantine would end by August/September?Seriously don't wanna pay that kind of money for 3 day quarantine.
Things change every week. I follow news very closely, seems they are adding more hotels to the list, which is bad news. But September is a long time from now. The irony is most of these new hotels don't even offer shuttle service, so you are forced to take a taxi, which itself kills the very purpose of this hotel drama
Hi! my husband and I will arrive in Toronto on April 17th, and I've been comparing prices so that we can choose the "best" option for our 3-day hotel quarantine. So, based on your experiences, I'd want to know what hotel would you recommend me between the Alt Hotel Pearson Airport and the Toronto Airport Marriott Hotel? Thank you!!
They have a court hearing on 19th March. I don't know if anything is gonna come out of it but ill wait before booking a hotel.
COVID-19 pandemic went global primarily through air travel, if it wasn't for air travel then there wouldn't be COVID-19 in every corner other than Wuhan. The first wave started with patient zero in Wuhan and went all over in weeks even with strict measures. If a puny little variant can spread so fast then imagine a stronger and mutated variant. Better safe than sorry which is a wise policy as statistics can't predict uncertainties regarding a new wave of pandemic emergence. Statistically there was only one patient zero in Wuhan, unfortunately statistical probability calculations failed heeding to the case count back then and is still failing today where huge number of cases are sprouting and sustaining from no where.

Brilliant thought!
If these measures were taken in Feb 20, I would have personally thanked the govt for their efforts to contain a 'then' deadly virus
But during the 1st outbreak, all flights were allowed into Canada from all covid ridden countries such as US, France, Italy etc etc, that too without any basic measures for travellers arriving here. Pre-Arrival covid tests were mandated only late Jan 21. Now an year after by late Feb 21 this hotel quarantine rule is put in place. Feels like someone was napping a whole year
How is this even justified?

It's not that easy, if you are planning next week then next month may be viable due to the technicalities involved and is purely based on luck/availability of rooms/tickets etc.
Really? My traveling back is Saturday March 27th, 2021. You mean I can't get a government approved hotel for Quarantine?

Many hotels have it listed online as mentioned on the link. Or you can call the hotels and book directly.
