Toronto's long lockdown in numbers

If it feels like we have been in lockdown forever, then clearly that cannot possibly be the case. But Toronto has suffered one of the longest and strictest lockdowns in North America, and the figures in a recent article put some solid numbers behind that feeling.

In the city of Toronto, non-essential businesses have been restricted to curbside pickup and online sales for over 150 straight days, hair and nail salons have been closed for over 190 days, gyms have been closed for 260 days, and indoor dining at restaurants has been verboten for more than 270 days.

So, that's why it feels like we've been stuck under a rock for nearly a year. It's because we have!
