Re-openings start today

Life in Ontario takes another step towards returning to normal today, with the reopening of garden centres and nurseries across the province.

Tomorrow, it is hardware and safety supply stores.

They’ll all have to have protective measures in place similar to those in grocery stores.

Monday sees a re-start for retail shops with street-side entrances, for pickup and delivery only.

The provincial government also wants hospitals to draw up plans for a gradual return of non-emergency surgeries, but no date has been given.

Each hospital will have to balance the need for the operation against the risk of the spread of COVID-19, and its capability to deal with any potential surge in coronavirus cases.

Cancer and heart surgeries will be among the first to be allowed.
