Arrive Canada App?
Just wondering, regarding the Arrive Canada App, I've seen this video:
I am just a bit surprised, that it doesn't ask to upload vaccination and PCR test certificates online?
The Arrive Canada App just seems to be a number of questions, but no upload of documentary evidence.
Is this really that simple?

In this video it seems that the upload of the vaccination certificate is possible.
However the test result doesn't seem to be possible to upload?

Just be glad you aren't a former Afghan interpreter working for the Canadian forces as they are only giving them 72 hours to fill out forms for resettlement in Canada.

Re: Arrive Canada App?
Proof of vaccination is uploaded to ArriveCan, but the test results are carried separately by the person to show to the airline at check in to get on a flight - and to present to the CBSA Officer at the port of entry.
- Probably not able to be put on the ArriveCan app because they have to be shown to the airline too.

You must present an accepted test result (paper or electronic proof) which must include:
