Forget using CDC cards. Demand people show state issued certificates(NY Excelsior card as example). Otherwise demand students get weekly Covid test and pay for it!

Lock them up.

Should be 200k each.

Thank you Canada for showing the U.S. on how it is done.

Trumpers aren’t the sharpest tools in the shed.

I hate to say it but might be a better idea to keep the border closed until the US has its COVID sh*t together. I can't tell you how hard that is to say out loud. 😢

Great!

Not nearly enough!

I guess they weren't firm on Open Borders then.

👍

Hahahahaha

Stupid rubes

Next time should be 100k + total ban from ever flying .

RWNJs do stupid things, but fake vax cards take the cake. “Hmm, do I get a free vaccine that actually protects me from serious illness or worse… …or spend my own money on a fake card , stay vulnerable to Covid and risk criminal fraud charges, just to pwn the libs?”

Why the fuck are you providing links in the article to help people print fake vaccination cards, NBC?!

Weeks ago…old news…

Lock them up!... Lock them up!... Lock them up!!!... 'Nuff said!!!...

AVechera Covidiots.

Eh, can ya keep 'em for us. Got thousands of them hozers down here too!

Wow. Going to put my vax card in my deposit drawer at the bank.

Yeah I’d just never go back to Canada

$16,000 in fines, plus the amount paid for fake vaccination cards and test results… VS. The free as free can be vaccine… The sheer level of idiocy. Make it make sense.

These other countries take Covid seriously. We have no right to force our political views, sense of entitlement and disease on them. If you cant abide by their rules stay out of their countries. Bad enough we have to put up with these stupid people

No fly list them as well!! That will teach em.

Damn, you get in more trouble for faking a COVID vaccination than you do for breaking into the Capitol.

Canada is very strict on entering their country. The US needs to be the same

I don’t believe these “fines articles.” Y’all not releasing names or even state how one can even tell if a vaccine card is fake. Scare tactics

Shocking they had to criticize Trump supporters on the article

Just a small clarification: the passengers were Canadians

Why even mention Trump or Trump supporters in the article? Or anti-vaxxers? They were only identified as Canadian citizens. continues to gaslight and try to divide. Do better.

Odd that someone looked so deeply into it to find out they were fake !!

Is it any surprise that Canadians dislike U.S. citizens?

Reminder that you can easily obtain a legitimate vaccine card for free. By getting the shot(s).

Good.

LOL

Good.

The only fake test results are the PCR tests used to orchestrate this massive fraud on humanity

LOCK THEM UP TOO!

Fake don't work.

Excellent!

smh dirty foreigners always bringing their diseases to better cleaner countries- oh wait /sarcastic

Gee, wonder who they voted for in the last election….

Entitled “Patriots”

UROCKlive1 Good.

Welp. I guess that answers THAT question.

'Play stupid games, win stupid prizes'

There is no proof for the existence of virusses at all

Sounds like something my co-worker Ike Okwochuku and his cousin Hushpappi would do.

would have been more had they not taken off those stupid red hats

Why, just why?

Don't prolong the 'WORLDWIDE' pandemic: 1) Wear a double-mask for the foreseeable future or until we're all safely out of the woods. 2) Get vaccinated; it's better to be safe than sorry. 3) And, it's far from being over! But, when it's finally over you'll know. 4) Stay safe.

For what? A fake Coronakillerviruspandemic based on fake PCR's?

Covid vax reactions. Go to FB or telegram to Covid Vaccine injuries to see the real numbers. There’s a coverup of number of vax injuries and deaths.

Good.

Good!

Paying 16K for something you could have gotten for free. Priceless

Maybe should have presented the new Covid-21 card AKA The Delta Virus Vaccinated

Canada, pretty soon you can build more than one road going through your country just based on our idiot citizens down here.

And they should be quarantined in solitary for 3 weeks (the variants, you know, can't be too sure!)

I am cheering for the ones who didn't get caught.

Play stupid games win stupid prizes

Pay up fraudsters.
