There most certainly will be consequences for those openly ignoring and defying orders that are intended to keep British Columbians safe. Anyone hosting a non-compliant event can currently be issued a violation ticket of $2,300, while individuals face a $575 fine. Vancouver Coastal Health issued a closure notice for the city s Corduroy Restaurant on Saturday, and police also visited the business in response to several complaints throughout the day. No arrests or tickets were issued by police, Cpl. Tania Visintin said in an email response. The provincial health authorities will seek further action as they see fit. We will continue to assist under their direction.
