Ontario Premier Doug Ford will be joined by Christine Elliott, Deputy Premier and Minister of Health, to make an announcement in Barrie, Ont. on Friday.

This announcement comes after the province announced plan to end mask mandates along with other COVID-19 measures in schools on March 21.

It will remain in place in some settings including public transit, long-term care, health-care settings, among other facilities.

On April 27, all masking requirements will be lifted.

“We’re going to move forward cautiously and if someone wants to keep them on, God bless ’em. You know, good for them,” Ford said.
