The Ontario government will scrap the colour-coded framework for COVID-19 restrictions that it introduced in the fall and replace it with a new reopening plan.

TORONTO -- The Ontario government will scrap the colour-coded framework for COVID-19 restrictions that it introduced in the fall and replace it with a new reopening plan that Health Minister Christine Elliott says will be released “very soon.”

On Tuesday, a spokesperson for Ford’s office confirmed that the colour-coded framework will not be revived as Ontario begins to lift restrictions, though it remains unclear what it will be replaced by. The Ford government released a staged reopening plan on April 27 of last year, though it did not actually begin to lift restrictions until nearly a month later.

Elliott was coy about when Ontario will begin to reopen its economy while speaking with reporters but she said that it will be based on a number of key indicators, including hospitalization rates.

So your framework didn't work huh? fordnation why dont you just listen to the medical experts? Be a lot easier on you onpoli then always being wrong

Rebrand a failed system, how conservative of you..... cant wait to get rid of this nepotism in Ontario

Based on what would Doug’s buddies would do… Car pool and pops - high risk Just car pool - med risk Pops in backyard - lower risk

Dougie’s new system is based on Timbits. If he shows up at a press conference with a face full of plain timbits, red zone. Chocolate = orange, etc... If he shows up eating celery, it’s not Doug Ford.

It does not Matter if they use colours or numbers any reopening plan won't work with Ontario cause they don't know how to listen..

I predict lots and lots of crayons being used

Yeah right...

Ran out of colours is my guess. OpenOntario

How much will this new framework cost us?

Ontario should scrap Doug Ford.

CTVLondon Here it is.

A new reopening plan? 🤣 He has a lockdown & a stay at home order in which no one is abiding to!

They’ve barely started to tamp down the virus and they’re already talking reopening plan.

oh good, more things that don't make any sense. Just what Ontario needs

Just open the province and stop coming up with dumb ideas.

Everybody panic!!!! We’re in the grey and everyone knows that grey means danger🤨

to be replaced with: Low Risk - Shit Medium to low risk - oh Shit Risky - Fuck Really Risky - Holy Fuck Maximum Risk - Holy Fuckin Shit what do we do now!

Deflecting….seriously who really knows exactly what they mean now ?You’ll probably work in some Tory blue into the new framework….as a subsumable campaign tactic.

Ontario’s version of Provincial Sesame Street. First you learn your colours, then we perhaps move on to your numbers. Who said learning the Ford way is difficult. He may learn as well.

Their way of screwing over restaurants and gyms some more.

We are neck deep in bullshit.

CTVLondon What is it going to just Open or Closed?

lol maye he's gonna use hand puppets this time

Do what BC did. Regional openings. Restrictions on movement out of regions ie GTA stay home and let the rest of the province breathe and open. fordnation

I suspect the plan will have pictures so that he would understand it.

onpoli COVID19Ontario FordFailedOntario soooo...🙄 ONThealth fordnation what is going to be this time?🥺 Signals Symbols A mix of signals & symbols Morse code...🤔 In any case that won't change the Lack of testing strategy/mass testing Inability to handle the crisis Damn🤨

Watching the Canes game and how packed that arena was only makes me jealous, screw colour coding and open up already

I mean after all, we're talking about this guy..

What’s the new plan?

Since Doug can only understand things if they're colour-coded now he will be totally lost. We'll have to draw him stick figures in the sand.

And the confusion continues So what’s next symbols, emojis we already had numbers and colours 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️👍👎🏻🤞👌✊🤜🤛🤘🏼🤟🏼🖕

You’ve got a long way to go before considering reopening, get down to single digits for a few days first.

Regional reopening will not work so scrap that idea. It has been shown in the past that people from a closed area will just travel to an open area. Not a good idea at all. fordnation celliottability onpoli

Reopen? Looking at the amount of traffic you wouldn’t know there’s a lockdown
