You can bet your bottom dollar that there will be people who will resent
being asked to show it, just as there are people who refuse to wear
masks. Then there is the possibility of forgeries. If it is just some
some or certificate that is emailed to you there will be be people
making forgeries for themselves and their friends. There was recently
someone busted at a Niagara border crossing with a forged Covid19
negative test result.


Look at all the people who take their dogs into stores and
restaurants and claim their are service animals. There are plenty of
sites online where you send them money and they send you the kit,
complete with special vest, ID tag, Service Dog patch and a
certificate. No training needed.

Personally, I like the idea of people having to have been vaccinated to
go into places. I do not want to be in a space with people who refused.
We have been through a year of lock downs and restrictions. I have not
been able to go to the gym for over a year. Our kayaking club had to
suspend activities last year. I can't go and see my doctor in person. I
want this to be over with.
