With the announcement from the Ontario government today, we have learned that the province is safely reopening outdoor recreational amenities prior to the end of Stay-at-Home Orders, which expire as of June 2, 2021. Outdoor recreational amenities are reopening as of this Saturday, May 22 at 12:01 a.m. with some restrictions.
As per the Ontario government press release:
“No outdoor sports or recreational classes are permitted prior to Step One. Outdoor limits for social gatherings and organized public events will be expanded to five people, which will allow these amenities to be used for up to five people, including with members of different households.”
Additionally, physical distancing must be maintained at all times.
There are three “Steps” to re-open the province. Ontario will remain in each of the steps for at least 21 days to evaluate any impacts on key public health indicators. If at the end of the 21 days, the vaccination thresholds have been met, alongside positive trends of other key public health and health system indicators, then the province will move forward. Here is an overview of how this affects sport across Ontario:
