July 30, 2020 – Effective July 31 at 12:01 am, the City of Toronto and Peel Region move into Stage 3 of Ontario’s reopening.

Toronto Public Health and Peel Public Health regions will join the 31 public health regions that entered into Stage 3 on July 17 and 24, 2020.

Windsor-Essex County Health Unit region will, for now, remain in Stage 2.

“While public health trends across the province are positive, we continue to closely monitor Windsor-Essex so that we can move the community into Stage 3 when the time is right,” said Christine Elliott, Deputy Premier and Minister of Health, adding, “No matter which stage a region is in, everyone needs to continue to follow public health advice to protect themselves, their families and community.”
