Lockdown


In March of 2020, Ontario Government ordered the closure of all non-essential businesses across the province for 14 days. This included a shutdown of all outdoor amenities, stores, public venues, gyms, libraries, schools and majority of small businesses. Toronto looked empty and deserted, walking in downtown felt quite surreal and somewhat daunting. The lockdown in fact lasted almost 3 months. The second wave of Covid-19 triggered yet another long lockdown.
