Niagara Mayors Urge Ford to Deliver Defined Plan for Re-Opening

Niagara's mayors are expressing their frustration over a lack of detailed plans to re-open the province.

The mayors are calling for a clearly developed plan based on evidence and includes the impact of vaccinations. 

"We believe our residents and businesses need to see a clearly developed re-opening plan that is evidence-based and includes the positive impacts of vaccinations. With more than half of Ontarians vaccinated with at least one dose, increased shipments of vaccines on the way, and age eligibility expanding in the next few weeks - Ontario should have a clearly defined re-opening plan."

The mayors are also urging Premier Doug Ford to allow public health units to regulate outdoor activities based on regional data. 

In addition, they're calling on both the federal and provincial governments to continue providing financial supports to businesses as the stay at home order continues.
