Hey Toronto fish. Live in the US now but may need to move to Toronto because of visa issues. I understand there’s a lockdown now, but just how open is the city during non lockdown periods? Outdoor dining only, bars, gyms, etc? Also how much longer is this lockdown expected to last

Probably another year with the way Ford manages “lockdowns” and vaccines. Things might open up for a week, and then it’ll turn right back around, this whole year has been 1 step forward 2 back.

We have a colour system which you can google. I dont see us getting into a colour where indoor dining or gyms open for a while. Maybe outdoor dining this summer fingers crossed. It's a depressing state of affairs here right now.

Non lockdown periods, depending on the colour, you can have outdoor dining, indoor dining with limited capacity with various restrictions. Gyms, outdoor only or indoor with restricted capacity. Outdoor socially distanced activities are fine... golf driving ranges are open even now, I believe. Hiking in parks etc. Lockdown is probably going to be around for at least another 2 months at minimum. Many people are also not following the lockdown and is gathering so who knows how long things will go on.

Toronto and Ontario in general has been the most locked down city/province in all of North America. 300+ days and counting. The latest round of measures takes us to May 20 and most likely into June.

Vaccines are on their way, by July we'll be fine for sure. Probably earlier, but who knows

Incorrect. Very shortly, you will hear about vaccine clinics cancelling appointments and shutting down for a few weeks due to lack of supply.

I think my partner is making my eating disorder worse.

I'm not sure if he is even aware of it, but he knows about my issues so it makes me wonder. My ED also runs rampant so it could be all in my head. Does anyone have experience dealing with this? I want to say something but not sure how.
