Niagara has officially moved into the Red-Control stage of the province's COVID-19 safety measures.

It includes a five-person cap on indoor social gatherings, a 10-patron limit for indoor dining rooms and it closes all movie theatres except for drive-ins.

But we might not be in the red zone for very long.

There are multiple reports that the entire province will move into the Grey-Lockdown stage as of Christmas Eve this Thursday.

This means only essential businesses would remain open and you would only be able to celebrate the holidays with the people you live with.
