OTTAWA — The company that held a contract for the build of the ArriveCan app said it was paid millions less than what Canada's auditor general reported last month.
He said his company kept a $2.5-million commission for its work over two years, while the rest of the money went to other contractors hired to help develop the app. "I'm disputing that $19.1 million is completely attributable to the ArriveCan application build," Firth said. Wednesday marks the third time Firth has testified before MPs about the issue. His business partner Darren Anthony is set to meet the committee on Thursday.
The government launched the ArriveCan app in April 2020 to track health and contact information for people entering Canada during the pandemic, and to digitize customs and immigration declarations.
