NEW HEALTH ORDERS


The province will implement the next phase of the ‘4-3-2-One Great Summer’ Reopening Path early, on August 7th starting at 12:01am. 
 
More extensive relaxation of restrictions will come into play. There are also measures of "recommendations" which will give businesses the option to practice the rules they feel more comfortable with for patrons and staff. For example, "Masks will be strongly recommended in indoor public settings for everyone who is not fully immunized including children under 12. At all times, a physical distance of two metres is recommended in indoor public places."
