The declaration of these hotspot communities comes with tighter public health restrictions on restaurants, gyms, workplaces and other meeting spaces.

Effective immediately, the Government of Ontario has stated the following regions are impacted by today’s announcement:  

  • Toronto
  • Peel Region
  • Ottawa
