Canada: Ontario latest province to lay out COVID-19 reopening plans

Ontario is the latest province in Canada to announce its gradual "reopening plan." The stay-at-home order is since early May.

Restrictions on the USA-Canada border were extended. That border will reopen at some point in time.

Ontario has announced a 3-step plan to reopen the province, starting with outdoor recreational amenities.

As of May 22, outdoor recreational amenities (like golf courses and tennis courts) will be allowed to reopen, the government said.

Outdoor limits for social gatherings and organized public events will be expanded on Saturday, which will allow these amenities to be used by up to 5 people. These amenities include driving ranges, soccer and other sports fields, tennis and basketball courts, and skate parks. No outdoor sports or recreational classes are permitted.

The Canadian government said step 1 of the 3-tier plan will likely begin on the week of June 14.
