Following the advice provided by the Provincial Government Health Authorities across our resorts operating in three jurisdictions (British Columbia, Alberta, Quebec), RCR has decided to require proof of full COVID-19 Immunization Record to access all lifts (chair lifts, gondolas & magic carpets) and indoor facilities at our resorts this winter. This decision has been made with the goal of providing you, our guests, our staff, and our resort communities with the safest environment possible.
RCR will only consider exemptions for medical reasons; the only medical exemptions that will be considered are as follows:
Residents of Alberta: As per CMOH Order 43-2021, exemption letters must be completed by a registered Physician or Nurse Practitioner and are subject to all the conditions outlined in the CMOH COVID-19 Immunization Policy.
Residents of British Columbia: As per the BC Ministry of Health, a COVID-19 Medical Exemption Form must be completed by a registered Physician or Nurse Practitioner.
Residents of all jurisdictions excluding the above: only the following medical conditions will be considered for an exemption:
- Severe allergic reaction / anaphylaxis following the first COVID-19 vaccination attempt.
- Physician-diagnosed myocarditis or pericarditis following the first COVID-19 vaccination attempt with no other cause identified.
- Persons who received antiviral monoclonal antibody therapy or convalescent plasma for treatment of prevention of COVID-19.
- Physician-diagnosed Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome.
An original signed letter from a physician or nurse practitioner who practices in the same province that you reside. Your documentation must also include:
- Your full name, which must match your government-issued identification.
- The physician or nurse practitioner’s complete information, including their name, phone number, contact information, professional registration number, and the signature of the physician or nurse practitioner.
- Statement that the exemption is for one of the above medical reasons for the individual’s exception from being fully vaccinated against COVID-19.
- The time period the exemption is valid, which must coincide with the intended visit.
RCR will review submissions and will advise if the request has been approved within ten (10) business days.
