Breaking News Part2: When the temporary provincewide shutdown was announced in January, we committed to safely and gradually return to this framework. Regions w...ill gradually transition back between February 10 and February 22, subject to review of the trends in public health indicators. Until your region returns to the framework, the shutdown and stay-at-home orders still apply in your area. The following three regions will be moving back to the Framework at the Green-Prevent level on Wednesday, February 10, 2021 at 12:01 a.m. and will no longer be subject to the Stay-at-Home order: - Hastings Prince Edward Public Health; - Kingston, Frontenac and Lennox & Addington Public Health; - Renfrew County and District Health Unit Until your region returns to the framework, the shutdown and stay-at-home orders still apply in your area. Here is the Direct Link to the Update Framework Guidelines: https://www.ontario.ca//covid-19-response-framework-keepin

BREAKING NEWS: To support the province's economic recovery, the government has updated the Framework to allow for a safer approach to retail. Limited in-person ...shopping in Grey-Lockdown zones will be permitted with public health and safety measures, such as limiting capacity to 25 per cent in most retail settings. In addition, public health and safety measures in retail settings will be strengthened for other levels of the Framework. Individuals will also be required to wear a face covering and maintain physical distance when indoors in a business, with limited exceptions. Other measures include a requirement for individuals to wear a face covering when attending an organized public event or gathering (where permitted) if they are within two metres distance of another individual who is not part of their household (both indoor and outdoor). All other requirements for gatherings and organized public events would be maintained. Based on the improving local trends of key indicators, including lower transmission of COVID-19, improving hospital capacity, and available public health capacity to conduct rapid case and contact management, the following three regions will be moving back to the Framework at the Green-Prevent level on Wednesday, February 10, 2021 at 12:01 a.m. and will no longer be subject to the Stay-at-Home order: Hastings Prince Edward Public Health; Kingston, Frontenac and Lennox & Addington Public Health; and Renfrew County and District Health Unit. Due to the fact that public health trends are improving in some regions faster than others, the current Stay-at-Home order will be amended and individual orders making it applicable to each public health region will be made except for the three above. It is proposed that the Stay-at-Home order will continue to apply to 28 public health regions until Tuesday, February 16, 2021. For Toronto, Peel and York regions, it is proposed that the Stay-at-Home order will continue to apply until Monday, February 22, 2021. Final decisions will be subject to review of the trends in public health indicators at that time. Recognizing the risk posed by new variants to the province's pandemic response, Ontario is introducing an "emergency brake" to allow for immediate action if a public health unit region experiences rapid acceleration in COVID-19 transmission or if its health care system risks becoming overwhelmed. If this occurs, the Chief Medical Officer of Health, in consultation with the local medical officer of health, may advise immediately moving a region into Grey-Lockdown to interrupt transmission. In addition, the provincial emergency declared under s 7.0.1 of the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act (EMPCA) will be allowed to terminate at the end of February 9, 2021. While the provincewide Stay-at-Home order will cease to apply in some regions as of February 10, 2021, everyone is strongly advised to continue to stay at home, avoid social gatherings, minimize travel between areas with different rules, and limit close contacts to their household. Employers in all industries should continue to make every effort to allow employees to work from home. Enforcement of residential evictions will remain paused in the public health unit regions where the provincial Stay-at-Home order remains in effect. This will ensure people are not forced to leave their homes. In regions where the Stay-at-Home order is lifted, the regular process for residential eviction enforcement will resume. Orders currently in force under the EMCPA have been extended to February 23, 2021 and will be extended further if necessary. O.Reg.55/21 (Compliance Orders for Retirement Homes) is currently in effect until February 19, 2021.

TAKE NOTE & PLEASE SHARE Some Sound advice to everyone amidst the chaos of Provincial Notices, Speculation and Fake Social & Print Media News. As we are gettin...g some messages and wuestions with regards to social media posts that are misleading and contradicting. We are all awaiting the formal announcement from the Province (Premier Ford) on wether or not the Stay Home Order will expire on February 9th, wether or not we will be opening all businesses or opening select businesses via the Color Coded Reopening Guideines! But it is very important to state understand NON OF THESE FACTS have been announced or formally published. We recommend and theorize that all businesses that were in a green zone under the color codeed guidelines prior to the lockdown should prepare for reopening next week. But we all must be patient and hope for the best possible news on Monday or Tuesday from the office of the Premier. The Approved Professionals will make all the proper announcements and publications once the formal decision has been made. All small business needs the province to reopen. Everyone is tired and mentally stressed with COVID. However, spreading false or rumoured news is not helping anyone! Be careful what you share.
