All orders under the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act including the stay-at-home order, enforcement of COVID-19 measures and residential eviction are extended as a result.

That means anyone caught violating the stay-at-home order could still face fines and prosecution under both the EMPCA and the Reopening Ontario Act.

Indoor social gatherings are prohibited, outdoor gatherings are capped at five people, and residents are able to leave their homes only for essential reasons.
