March 17, 2020: The Government of Ontario announced an order declaring an emergency under the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act over fears of COVID-19 and coronavirus spread. Ontario Premier Doug Ford, flanked by his minister of health, solicitor general and minister of finance, said that by declaring a state of emergency, the province is using every power to continue to protect the health and safety of all.

“We are facing an unprecedented time in our history,” said Ford. “This is a decision that was not made lightly. COVID-19 constitutes a danger of major proportions. We are taking this extraordinary measure because we must offer our full support and every power possible to help our health care sector fight the spread of COVID-19. The health and wellbeing of every Ontarian must be our number one priority.”
The following establishments are legally required to close immediately:
• All facilities providing indoor recreational programs;
• All public libraries;
• All private schools as defined in the Education Act;
• All licensed child care centres;
• All bars and restaurants, except to the extent that such facilities provide takeout food and delivery;
• All theatres including those offering live performances of music, dance, and other art forms, as well as cinemas that show movies; and
• Concert venues.
Further, all organized public events of over fifty people are also prohibited, including parades and events and communal services within places of worship. These orders were approved by the Lieutenant Governor in Council and will remain in place until March 31, 2020, at which point they will be reassessed and considered for extension, unless this order is terminated earlier.
