Ontario Under State of Emergency

Dealers may be open, by appointment only, from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. subject to test drive restrictions, described below.

Just after 1:30 p.m. today Ontario Premier Doug Ford announced the State of Emergency and a province-wide stay at home order effective 12:01 a.m. Thursday until further notice.

What this means is that everyone should remain at home with exceptions for essential purposes, such as going to the grocery store or pharmacy, accessing health care services, for exercise or for essential work. In addition to limiting outings to essential trips, all businesses must ensure that any employee who can work from home, does work from home.
