This was going to be the week where we would be able to emerge from the latest round of stay-at-home orders, but it will be a little while longer until present health restrictions start to lift.
On Thursday, the Premier’s Office announced province-wide stay-at-home orders would be extended until at least June 2.
“While we are seeing positive trends as a result of the public health measures put in place, we cannot afford to let it up yet,” said Premier Doug Ford in a statement. “We must stay vigilant to ensure our ICU numbers stay down and our hospital capacity is protected. If we stay the course for the next two weeks and continue vaccinating record number[s] of Ontarians every day, we can begin to look forward to July and August and having the summer that everyone deserves.”
