Quebec, Nova Scotia and Alberta begin relaxing COVID-19 restrictions

Relaxed COVID-19 restrictions go into effect today in Quebec, Alberta and Nova Scotia, while Ontario Premier Doug Ford is scheduled to announce a reopening plan for that province this afternoon. 

In Quebec, non-essential stores, personal-care salons and museums reopen today across the province, while in six, less populated regions, gyms and in-person restaurant dining also reopen. 

Alberta restaurants are open for in-person dining today, and one-on-one training at gyms can resume.

Relaxed restrictions on organized gatherings go into effect today in Nova Scotia, which had eight active cases of COVID-19 as of Sunday.
