Ontario is set to lift all COVID-19 public health measures by the end of March, including mask mandates. Premier Doug Ford said Ontario is in a position to do this thanks to the province’s careful approach to re-opening and the resulting stability seen in case counts, hospitalizations and ICU admissions.
The easing of restrictions will start Monday, with capacity limits lifted in restaurants, bars, gyms, casinos and indoor meeting and event spaces.
Ontario is aiming to lift all remaining measures, including masking requirements and emergency orders, on March 28, 2022.
