Premier Doug Ford called the protestors a "bunch of yahoos" last week after Ontario's first demonstration of this kind. This Saturday's protest comes after Ford has announced that some businesses can open up as soon as May 4 as the province adopts a reopening strategy.
One protestor said, "While we have to be careful with the virus, it doesn’t justify the depression, unemployment, loneliness, despair, bankruptcy and everything else this lockdown is causing."
