The CBSA has now published on its website a full analysis of the ArriveCAN costs that have been incurred by the agency.
For example, $7.5 million was spent with Service Canada on the call centre. Those individuals answered more than 650,000 calls from users of the ArriveCAN application. Another example would be data management. We spent $5.2 million providing data management facilities both to us and the Public Health Agency.
We spent $4.6 million on data storage and cloud services. This is around the storing of that data on secure cloud.
We spent $4.5 million on integrating the ArriveCAN application with the other basic systems within the organization that would allow the border services officers to see the information on ArriveCAN at the primary inspection kiosks.
We spent $2.3 million on security around the application, and we spent $1.7 million on accessibility.
All of those details are reported on our website and open to scrutiny.
Thank you.
