Good Afternoon All, Premier Ford made a brief statement this afternoon and, as we probably all expected, the current lock-down will not be lifted this coming Monday. The restrictions that Toronto is currently under will continue. Premier Ford will be providing more details on Monday (Dec. 21st) at 1pm. I will provide you all with a summary immediately afterward. Thanks,Susan
