Reopening Ontario, will be moving to Step 1 of the Roadmap on June 11, 2021 at 12:01 a.m.
Learn about the Roadmap to Reopen, the province’s three-step plan to safety and gradually lift public health measures based on the ongoing progress of the provicewide vaccination rates and improvements of key public health and health care indicators at https://www.ontario.ca/page/reopening-ontario
Ontario will remain in Step One for at least 21 days to evaluate any impacts on key public health and health system indicators. If at the end of the 21 days the province has vaccinated 70 per cent of adults with one dose and 20 per cent of adults with two doses and there are continued improvements in other key public health and health system indicators, the province will move to Step Two of the Roadmap.
