1. (THREAD) On February 11th of 2021 the announcement of delaying march break in Ontario was made, the reason for this was to combat the unpredictable & ever changing Covid-19 situation in Ontario. That very day Ontario reported 945 new cases with a positivity rate of 2.3%.
2. Fast forward to 2022, Ontario despite limited testing is reporting 1,787 new cases of Covid-19 with a positivity rate of 10.2% and now is when the government is considering DROPPING the provincial mask mandates by the end of march break.
3. We aren’t done with Covid-19 nor are Ontarian’s done with suffering the devastating effects of this virus, the government of Ontario is done with trying to look after its people & get us to a safe place before reopening. #onpoli#onhealth

(THREAD) I often hear the arguments that the Covid-19 related issues in Ontario I speak about such as our stressed healthcare & educations systems aren’t that big a deal because they’ve been issues before the pandemic.
The problem with this is that though they have been problems that needed fixing for some time now, we cannot deny how drastically the pandemic has amplified the severity of these issues. #onpoli#onted
