CASE B Disclaimer: The information provided here about COVID:19 is provided for the use in the exam only and is not to be used as medical advice; it may contain items that are personal views of the sources sited. The Provincial Government of Ontario has announced that as of tomorrow, March 21st, masking requirement will be removed in most indoor settings in the province. The removal of masking requirements is coming just 3 weeks after the Ontario removed the proof of vaccination requirement is most public settings, however, permitting some businesses and organizations to choose to require such proof upon entry. Masks would still be required for a period of time in certain settings such as public transit and long-term care. The question of masking in educational institutions, including elementary schools, secondary schools (high schools), and post-secondary schools (universities and colleges) has been in the headlines since the announcement. Various school districts in Ontario (elementary and secondary schools), such as the Toronto District School Board (TDSB) and the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board (HWDSB), have asked the Province to allow for a more gradual removal of the requirement in schools, but were denied. While private schools can maintain the mask requirement, publicly fudned schools in the Province cannot. Moreover, public health units no longer have the authority to enact local measures, as noted in Toronto Public Health response to a request from the TDSB: "As you are aware, all policies related to mask mandates in schools are within the provincial government's purview. Further, with the most recent update to the Reopening Ontario Act, local medical officers of health are precluded from issuing Letters of Instruction to implement local measures, including the requirement that masks be worn in schools or other locations." (March 15, 2022, letter from Dr. Eleen de Vila, Medical Officer of Health, Toronto Public Health) Universities, such as York U, can opt to maintain the mask requirement (see item on page_) The following news items are available as part of this case (DO NOT conduct any internet searches during the exam): Page 7 Ontario to drop most mask mandates on March 21, remaining pandemic rules to lift by end of April (cbc.ca, March 9) Page 8 Ford shoots back at school boards looking to extend mask mandate (cbc.ca, March 11).
