The reopening of daycare centres in regions across the country has brought a host of new rules and guidelines as the coronavirus pandemic continues.Ontario is the latest province to allow all licenced daycare centres to open, starting June 12.
Daycares were allowed to open in Quebec on May 11, except for Montreal. The province’s largest city opened its daycares on June 1, having been initially excluded due to the amount of COVID-19 cases coming out of the region.
In B.C., many childcare centres were allowed to continue operations under new guidelines that included the removal of toys that cannot be frequently cleaned.
Stephen Lecce, Ontario’s education minister said at a press conference in advance of the reopening that all children will be.
