It’s a dicey time for those commercial operations who serve the public – restaurants in particular.
A colleague had planned on meeting with a client for lunch – called to find out if they were open. The restauranteur said they were open but that there was no one in the restaurant and they didn’t know if they were going to remain open.
Makes it hard for the customer to plan.
Some provinces are instructing restaurateurs to limit the number of people they have seated at any one time. Servers and cooks are being given beefed up instructions.
It is a tight time for everyone.

People should seriously consider not making plans to go out for lunch, or meeting people at this point in time. If Canadians don’t self-isolate then our government like those in other countries will mandate that all restaurants, bars, etc. remain closed, with only Grocery Stores and Pharmacies remaining open.
Interesting that online cannabis sales have increased with next day delivery. Liquor stores are being swamped, and no Vodka does not kill the virus. What does this say about our society?
