The Prime Minister says we need reduce the burden on the health care sector in regards to the COVID-19 pandemic. Trudeau recognized frontline health workers including doctors, nurses, administrative, and maintenance staff for their efforts to protect Canadians.
Earlier today Ontario announced a state of emergency closing sit-in restaurants, bars, banning events over 50 and shutting down all libraries and recreation facilities in the province. The federal government did not issue a state of emergency. Trudeau says order take out instead of going out for dinner and support your neighbours and friends in need. He adds Parks Canada will suspend all visitor access and essentially anything with a door will be closed.
