Well that is definitely a bummer for some other documents that I rely on the R10. ICBC won't renew my driver's license only with the AoR, they keep telling me it has to be the R10...
Do you know if the R10 is only provided after I take my biometrics? Because if so... that's another issue - all the Service Canada Offices are closed therefore I can't take my biometrics as per IRCC's request.
