Grand River Transit

[Bob_McBob]

Only the public transit users were charged under a mask bylaw. All six other charges are for unrelated provincial offences. Furthermore, the region has made it very clear they will not enforce the mask bylaws, which I can confirm based on several reports from acquaintances attempting to make complaints. As far as I'm aware, this is the first time anyone has been charged under either mask bylaw, so it's pretty clear they are only targeting public transit users at this time.

The Region and its partners will not be doing active enforcement and ticketing related to these by-laws at this time. We continue to take an education-first approach, asking people to comply with the by-law and educating them on the importance of protecting each other. We are appealing to residents’ goodwill and willingness to cooperate for the greater good.
