Premier Needs To Help People Be Able To Stay At Home

Mike Schreiner made the following statement regarding the new State of Emergency


“Delay in implementing strong public health measures have led to this point.  And yes, we all need to do our part to reduce the spread of Covid-19.

That means the provincial government needs to do their part too. For too long this government has been dithering. 

Today’s announcement does not change this. Yes, I support a stay at home order, but it is hard to stay at home if you cannot afford to. 

The Premier must act to help Ontarians stay at home by:

• restoring paid sick leave, 

•  reducing class sizes to allow a safe return to school when public health measures allow

•  providing rent relief, and 

•  increasing staffing and resources in long term care homes. 

The Premier needs to provide us with a concrete goal that people can get behind for what lockdowns will achieve and metrics for additional restrictions and the lifting of restrictions.”
