Ontario considers exiting Step 3 as early as next week, sources say
CTV
Ontario is considering a further easing of pandemic restrictions and an announcement could come as soon as Friday as health officials say the COVID-19 situation is improving in the province, CTV News Toronto has learned.
Sources say Ontario Premier Doug Ford and his cabinet are expected to consider the new proposal this week.
The government is considering making the announcement this Friday, and implementing the plan as early as next Monday, the sources said.
Ontario has been in Step 3 of the "Roadmap to Reopen" since July. The province held off on exiting Step 3 due to an increase in COVID-19 cases in August.
Exiting Step 3 of the roadmap will likely mean capacity limits are increased in many settings but details of what restrictions will be eased have not been confirmed.
