Toronto To Move To Grey-Lockdown on Monday
Today the Ontario government announced that Toronto will transition from the stay-at-home order to the Colour Coded Framework on Monday, March 8th, 2021. Toronto will be in the Grey-Lockdown.
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.
50% capacity limit for supermarkets, convenience stores, pharmacies, and other stores that primarily sell groceries continues
25% capacity limit for all other retail stores, including, big box stores, liquor stores, hardware stores, and garden centres.
Curbside pick-up and delivery permitted.
Stores must post capacity limits publicly (Post at any entrances customers and staff may use.)
Stores must have passive screening for patrons. This can be done by posting this screening poster at your store’s entrance
