COVID Lockdown
- ALL OF ONTARIO TO BE LOCKED DOWN DECEMBER 26
- HAMILTON IN LOCKDOWN TODAY
- TORONTO AND PEEL LOCKDOWN EXTENDED
Hamilton is now in lockdown by order of the Ontario government.
Today Premier Ford announced a Province-wide lockdown, to begin at 12:01 a.m. on December 26. It had previously been reported that the lockdown would begin December 24. It will last for at least 28 days in southern Ontario and 14 days in Northern Ontario.
Toronto and Peel Region, already in lockdown for several weeks, have already seen their lockdown orders extended until at least January 4, 2021. Windsor-Essex and York Region remain in lockdown as well.
Motor vehicle dealers are considered an essential service and may remain operating during the lockdown.
Under the new colour coded system put in place by the Province, “lockdown” or “Grey” zone means:
LOCKDOWN
(Maximum Measures)
Motor vehicle sales permitted to be open for in person shopping
by appointment only and other safety restrictions
Needless to say, social distancing, proper use of PPE, and disinfecting protocols all remain highly necessary and remain in effect throughout the pandemic in all areas of Ontario.
Please do what you can to keep your staff and customers safe and healthy.
