Ontario Premier Doug Ford has announced new restrictions for the province.
Outdoor recreation facilities such as golf courses, basketball courts and playgrounds will need to close.
Ontario has also extended the state of emergency and stay at home orders another two weeks.
Ford says interprovincial border checks will be set up starting Monday, April 19th, 2021.
Ford says restrictions will be strongly enforced.
COVID-19 modelling released today shows that if Ontario had the supply to ramp up to 300,000 vaccinations a day it would have a significant impact on the ability to handle this third wave.
The province says in the short term they’re not expecting to get the supply required to do so.
On April 12th, Ford announced that all publicly funded and private elementary and secondary schools in the province will move to remote learning when students return from the school break on April 19th.
Private schools were to transition to remote learning by April 15th.
More details to come.
