COVID Crisis Shuts Down Provincial Parks

Ontario’s provincial parks are closing until April 30th due to the COVID-19 epidemic.

The government says it is “In order to assist…with the efforts to keep Ontarians safe.”

The closure affects car camping, backcountry camping. roofed accommodations. day use opportunities. and all public buildings.

Anyone who is currently a park visitor must leave by Thursday. If any person or group has a reservation from now until April 30th will be given a full refund with no penalty.

In between various stints on radio, television and writing, Jason is a dad, a partner and (some would consider) a zoo keeper (seriously, he has a LOT of pets).
