Well my food/beverage card appears to still not be activated, so I emailed my account rep. Got the following automated reply: Due to my introductory email being sent out to my block of membership accounts, I am experiencing a higher than normal volume of inbound calls and emails. Please be advised that responses may be delayed, and I will assist with your inquiry as soon possible.
Hope I can get this ironed out by Tuesday, would like to use the card for the home opener. Unless I can still use my 2019.20 card, I still have a balance on that.
EDIT: Surprise! I got a reply already: Your new Canucks card will be activated with your food & beverage credit a day prior to your first game. Please also note that if you have a remaining balance on your 2019.20 card it will be accepted this season as well.
