Discussion

Ontario

  • People can download proof of vaccination online
    • In a few weeks, QR code will be added and “vaccine receipts” will become “vaccine certificates”
    • Civic-tech-built website for making QR codes and adding to Apple Wallet: https://grassroots.vaccine-ontario.ca/
    • Once vaccination certificates are added, launching an app for businesses to use to scan QR codes (mid-October)
      • Will be a privacy statement because users are concerned about business owners keeping their information private
  • Proof of vaccination “portal” was done quickly, and might not be the easiest
    • Working on improving the experience, and make it as easy as possible for the public
  • Disconnect on the proof of vaccination site not using the Ontario design system (might cause confusion due to branding being different on both sites)
  • Counterfeit receipts starting to come up in Ontario
    • QR code that’s being launched is part of the digital identity program and it is not plain text (hashed), so will not be as easy to copy by counterfeiters

Quebec

  • Using Vaccine passport on their English page

PEI

  • Currently called PEI Vaccine Passport but all promotion will use VaxPass

Nova Scotia

Yukon

  • Proof of vaccination is a 'service' that's integrated into main Yukon.ca site:
    • Called a 'credential'
    • Yukon's messaging talks about moving to a federal proof of vaccine process if that's ever developed
