He specified private COVID Test. I assumes that means that it is for someone who is not covered by the nationalized health system or that it is a situation not covered by insurance.

If you require testing for travel or occupational purposes, you or your employer would usually foot the bill. Healthcare workers have special exceptions. Probably Canada is similar.
