TORONTO - Golf courses and other outdoor recreational facilities can reopen across Ontario today as COVID-19 cases continue to trend down.
Residents can also resume using tennis courts, skate parks and sports fields. However, outdoor sports and classes remain off limits. |
Golfers have been teeing up for this news for weeks, after lobbing sharp criticism at the provincial government.
Premier Doug Ford made the announcement on Thursday, as he unveiled a three-step reopening plan that will bring the province out of a stay-at-home order that's been in place for well over a month. The province is due to enter the first stage of reopening in mid-June, after 60 per cent of adults have at least one dose of COVID-19 vaccine.
