The Mayor of Vaughan and Yang Shizhen, a Chinese member of the Chinese community, also ate lunch at a Chinese-run restaurant in Vaughan, calling on the public not to worry, it is time to return to normal life.

In a Chinese-run restaurant in Kangshan District, Wang City, Ontario, I saw a lot of diners. The boss said that although the business was hit because of the epidemic, recently he saw that the citizens began to go out for consumption, and the situation has obviously improved.

The first two weeks at the beginning of the epidemic saw about 40% less turnover.
Now, the situation is really a lot better.

Vaughan mayor says “government press conference is of course useful, but you also need to put into practice the actual consumption to really help the local economy. Some communities feel the pressure of life caused by the virus. We have to come out and support each other. This is very important for the community to express support in difficult times. There is no fear to hide, everyone. We should encourage everyone to come out and support local businesses. At least 24,000 Chinese residents, 8% of the city's population.”
