More Ontario businesses can start reopening today.
As announced by the provincial government late last week, retail services not in shopping malls - that have separate street-front entrances - can now open with measures enabling physical distancing, while seasonal businesses and recreational activities for individual or single competitors can start, animal services - like pet care and regular veterinary appointments - can resume, and indoor and outdoor household services - including housekeepers, cooks, cleaning, and maintenance - can restart if they can follow public health guidelines.
Golf courses were allowed to open over the weekend - with some restrictions - while marinas, boat clubs, and public boat launches could open for recreational use, and private parks and campgrounds could start preparations for the season, including allowing access for trailers and RVs for those with a full season contract.
Businesses that board animals - like stables - could also let boarders visit, care for, or ride their animal.
The province also lifted its Restricted Fire Zone - allowing open air burning - though the Municipality of Wawa reminds open air burning permits are still needed.
The Municipality's also warning boaters to only go out with those in their immediate household - limited to no more than five people - and to maintain physical distancing of at least two metres, stay in your vehicle while waiting to use the boat launch, and not enter the marina if exhibiting symptoms of COVID-19.
Washroom facilities and the fish cleaning station remain closed at this time.
