TORONTO Some travellers arriving in Toronto say their calls are being disconnected after waiting hours to book a mandatory quarantine hotel. The federal government’s new policy, which came into effect on Feb. 22, requires people flying into Canada to pay upwards of $2,000 for a three-day stay at a federal government approved hotel while waiting for their mandatory COVID-19 test results. Ontario resident Branden Mullins said he’s been on the phone for days trying to book a hotel for his upcoming flight from Pennsylvania to Toronto this weekend. He shared screenshots of his call logs with CTV News Toronto that showed he had been on the phone for three hours twice on Wednesday only to have his call dropped both times.
