November 20, 2020. Office of the Premier TORONTO In consultation with the Chief Medical Officer of Health, local medical officers of health, and other health experts, the province is moving certain public health unit regions to new levels in the Keeping Ontario Safe and Open Framework, which includes moving Toronto and Peel into Lockdown. These necessary measures are being taken to limit community transmission of COVID-19 in order to keep schools open, safeguard health system capacity, and protect the province's most vulnerable populations. Full News Release: https://news.ontario.ca//ontario-taking-further-action-to- I am stunned that York Region is not included in these new measures. The GTA is ONE region. The coronavirus knows no borders nor boundaries. While Toronto & Peel may be in lockdown, those residents can and will come to York Region to shop etc, not to mention residents from the GTA move daily between all major areas from and to work, including places of worship. Seriously? We are not pieces of a puzzle, we are the complete picture. Please ask our Regional reps why this was not taken into consideration when this was written and delivered to Ford yesterday: https://www.google.ca//article-york-region-pleads-with-on/
