No decision has been made on potentially re-opening schools in Ontario in June.
The Ontario Government released details on re-opening the Province this afternoon.
One noticeable absence was what will happen with schools. Premier Doug Ford says they still haven't made a decision on whether or not to let students return to class this year.
"We have some differing opinions, Dr. Williams, who I always chat with, he is in favour of opening the schools. We have a few doctors on the science table who are not in favour and then we have the teachers who want to put an injunction in, if we move forward."
Ford says he understand parents are frustrated.
"We also have to factor in and we heard it today, that opening schools could increase cases by 11 percent, that is concerning with me when it increases by 11 percent, because it compounds so quickly."
Stores and patios are set to re-open on June 14 and some parents are going to be really upset if that happens, while kids are still learning remotely.
