The Ontario government has announced that the City of Toronto and Peel Region will move into Stage 3 of Ontario’s COVID-19 recovery plan effective Friday. Windsor-Essex, the only other area of the province that is still in Stage 2, will not be permitted to proceed to the next phase at this point. Stage 3 allows for activities such as indoor dining in restaurants, live performing arts shows and the reopening of movie theatres and playgrounds. It also permits larger gatherings of people, though social distancing requirements remain in place. Government news release
