BREAKING - Canadians can look forward to small, outdoor summer gatherings if vaccine targets are met: officials

If 75 per cent of Canadians eligible for vaccines have had one dose and 20 per cent have had a second dose, summer can include camping, hiking, picnics, and patios, but crowds should still be avoided, Health Canada says.

By fall, if 75 per cent of those eligible for a vaccine have been fully vaccinated, expect to be able to gather indoors with people outside your household, participate in indoor sports, and attend family gatherings. Health Canada says the lifting of public health restrictions more generally is, of course, dependent on the situation in specific communities.NEW: Canada releases path moving forward on reducing public health measures. Frankly, this is what we have been waiting for!

Oh boy. I am so excited.🙄

Is anyone listening to 'authorities' ?

When would that be CTV ,Sept 11

Gee, thanks for the permission! Where do they find these incompetent people?

Thank you God.I mean great and Noble OZ.

Fascist state.

I will be enjoying my summer with other people without vaccine targets thank you! Worst leadership ever!

Oh shut up Tam! Talk about someone who has ignored 'the data' this entire pandemic! The only reason we need to reach our vaccine quota is to fulfill contractual obligations to bigpharma! It isn't about herd immunity. whatajoke ivermectinworks ivermectinsaveslives

All this time and this is the reward? Biggest screw-up in the history of the country... right behind Trudeau becoming P.M.

It’s not up to the government what, how, or when I do what I do.

Made in Canada, Madness ... it's time, to rebel ..

BREAKING - another failure tried to spin as positive news by the Trudeau propaganda machine. The US is wide open. We are not. We failed and continue to fail

Isn’t this coercion into vaccination? How is this even legal? I can’t wait to hear the courtroom arguments when this shit hits a legal fan! With no credible evidence it’s easy to engage in a verbal diarrhea on TV. Not so easy to convince a judge, though.

chinavirus

And if not?

Sad thing is you guy are changing the acceptable levels in a daily basis !! Open up let us live!! Enough is enough!!

The longer our citizens tolerate our lives being dictated by unelected government officials' 'emergency mandates', the more of this tripe we are going to see. Canadians can look forward to whatever they want if they'll just stand up for it.

So there is a virus that I have a 99.7% chance of surviving. If I take a vaccine, I can have a small portion of my freedom back. My survival goes up to let’s say maybe 99.9%. Thanks to our overlords for protecting us. 🙄

If only 2% of the population is at risk, why do we need 20% fully vaccinated and 75% first dose to be able to hangout OUTSIDE.. Does it not make sense to vaccinate those 2% and let us back to normal with vaccines still rolling out to those who want them

Looks like Nathan Phillips Square was full of vaccinated people yesterday...

Pretty sure I’m just going to do whatever I want.

That dude can fuck off anytime now.

Lol. Like who isnt already doing this ?

Canadians would do better to trust in natural immunity than their public health officials.

Can we put these scammers in jail already! Crimes against humanity! Wake up people!

can look forward to lower ratings

Omg is this supposed to be good news ? We won’t be out of this hell for months at this rate.

Lol does anyone actually pay attention to these people? It's your life live it the way you see fit. Government doesn't own you or control you, they work for us. Hug and kiss your family and friends they miss you. 😊🍻

So when did that thing become the law maker for Canada ? This is total bullshit !

? X

😂😂😂😂😂😂 Trudeau doesn’t get to dictate my gatherings.

no conspiracy no wonder there is only 1 narrative

according to the latest science, it is extremely rare to get covid outdoors, it can happen but it is rare if vaccines are not mandatory in Canada why are they pushing people to get it when it is approved for emergency usage, a new technology, and vaccine makers have no liability

Why would anyone in there right mind ever lessen to Tam.

CTVToronto Wow amazing! Perhaps they should focus on getting the vaccines out and supply guaranteed before making false promises again!

Canada will remember how slow the vaccines were distributed and the fact that there was no infrastructure even states to produce domestically when the election is called

The rest of the developed world is moving on from COVID and the best Canadians can hope for is a summer in which we MAY be permitted to have small outdoor gatherings. What an astounding failure from our government! Lowering the bar each and every day.

TrudeauVaccineFail TrudeauFailedCanada TrudeauFailedCanada TrudeauWorstPMEver

I will, for sure, never hang out with any of these government elements in any outdoor. This pandemic showed how sadly incompetent unorganized illogical nationally unmotivated unprofessional & how pro foreigners they all are. There will be changes.

Not concerned with the opinion of someone 3000kms away.

Don’t care what you say Tam... my summer will be great and celebrated with as many friends as I can find.

This dangerous, pushing a never before used gene therapy drug on citizen and telling them safe - safe for experimental use during a state of emergency! By definition this is not a pandemic thus it can't be a state of emergency. There is a special place in hell for U people.

This medical tyranny! 70% of Canadian need a shot before restriction can be lifted!! What if only 60% want a the shot, what then? Is the government going to create a 'vaccine' passport to create a two teared society?

Going to have them either way. You expect Canadians to not go outside and enjoy summer after one of the longest harshest winters on record.

This government it so out of touch.

FUCK YOU.....QUITE using the vaccine as a carrot to give people there FREEDOM...!!! 99.98 % SURVIVAL RATE I WILL TAKE MY CHANCES ON MY IMMUNE SYSTEM...not on VACCINES with no testing other than the current desperate miss lead fools who the MEDIA and GOVERNMENT have mislead....

That’s great news...although I hear a soft threat if people don’t get vaccinated? Could just be me - trying to trust the process cdnpoli

GFY!!!!

What BS!! 75% you better fully Open the dam economy because soon your citizens will force you to!

I never stopped. It doesn’t tell me what to do.

Sorry WHO, but is it not way too early to give people false hope and promised freedoms for this coming summer? Have you decided yet if people who receive these double injections will be sufficiently protected from contacting and spreading these so called 'variants' of Covert19?

Perpetually incompetent leaders. USA: 50% fully vaccinated/ Canada 2.7%. Leaders choose to restrict freedoms, police, and play politics (i.e.border 1% of infections) instead of focusing on the real issue: getting vaccines in people's arms. Banana republic-like leadership.

So much for stay at home. Went to get a coffee drive thru. Saw people at local park. Kids congregating on sides of streets. Tons of people from Toronto in large groups outside food court on way to niagara falls no doubt. All the while we can't golf or play outdoor sports. Nice!

Canadian's can look forward to whatever they choose.

Hahahaha, CPHO_Canada you should take a walk around Toronto. Outdoor gatherings are in full effect.

Targets that JustinTrudeau and his motley band of fools totally fucked up!

You can never get all this wasted time back. Have as many gather as you want.

Um no.

Normal people are doing this now.

I feel like people are already doing that

Nah 🤡

How about rewarding those if us who have followed the ever changing guidelines including taking your god forsaken Astra Zenega vaccine, been working the entire time in the public, not taken any nor offered any type of salary top off during this circus? Feeling under appreciated.

A month ago, she told us, flat out, that the restrictions were 'our' fault.. Now she is saying ( in a much nicer way ) that its lack of vaccines fault that we have these restrictions.. Who was responsible for getting the vaccines Why didn't we have more sooner ? Mr. Trudeau !!

Breaking tam can f*** right off if me and everyone in my family has thier first shot ...you can bet I'm not waiting till her magic targets to get together outside with my family for something like fathers day its just dumb

It's happening anyway, people are not waiting for the Governments at any level to say it's okay. People have lost faith in all Government.

So if we had more vaccines and sooner, we would have had more of an enjoyable spring and summer.. Whomever was responsible for that not happening, is responsible for us not having more freedom this summer.... So who's fault is it that we are restricted right now .

If you have stopped doing this, you are a coward.

Watch, we'll get blamed if this doesn't go as planned.

I'm guessing a lot of Canadians are going to do whatever the hell they want to this summer, they're tired of an inept bureaucracy and the unenforced rules.

No one trusts anything that comes from Dr. Tams mouth.

That is if you'll still be around after taking the shot right? Stop supporting vaccinations, they do not help in anyway, they actualy can cause damage and death!

Get your Vaccinated pin today at

That little bit of hope is just playing us to keep this thing going longer. Needs to end

Breaking: aside from crossing the border you can’t stop me from doing whatever I want... I’ve been delivering peoples inessential items including alcohol for the last year I’ll be dammed if I can deliver to 80 plus addresses a day and then hide at home anymore...

Not really breaking news. Breaking news would be, the Liberal and Conservative party have stopped the Playground Battle for turf control. JustinTrudeau fordnation Canada, home of the Failed Government since 2007

Thank you Emperor JustinTrudeau I can’t wait to be allowed to walk outside safely 😂 LiberalTools Only reason we aren’t completely vaccinated already is because of your indecisions. Everyday announces on Twitter new vaccine agreements, everyday another falls through

If we had the 2nd dose in the prescribed 28 day time frame, if you shut our borders, if you were proactive not reactive, If. What are you going to do about the 4th wave mentalhealth

Yeah I just got a notice from my employer that I'm eligible now because I'm a Frontline worker.... why an I just now eligible if I'm considered a Frontline worker?

Whoopy shit

Yeah sorry but I kind of think people were going to this regardless. Families are sick and tired of being locked up inside like animals and missing valuable time with loved ones that never comes back.

I need my second dose now instead of four months.

You mean the fuckin Calgary Stampede? Lol

Tam should be put in jail and sent back to China!

Oh can we?! Fuck off Tam

This government is a joke! While Canadians have been banned from going anywhere they have been letting tonnes of migrants into the country. A bunch of commys if you ask me. I have had covid. I have gotten 1st dose of astrazeneca now lm being told l have to wait for a second dose

I don't think anyone listens to Tam anymore. They change message every 16 second. I stopped listening months ago to the feds. Only listen to Dr Bonnie and my brain

What about vaccination process 24/7 Miss idi**? we could reach 100% two doses in 2 weeks.

Oh WOW! Small gatherings🤪. Open the borders so I can head south and watch a ballgame. Don’t worry about Covid. Americans don’t want to come here anyway with our restrictions .

Spike proteins cause vascular deaths. Avoid.

this is rediculous💀 also, why wouldn’t vaccinated people be able to gather now?

People are already gathering indoors and outdoors lol

People of Wuhan r doing music concerts n parties without masks in China. Just watched a video on Indian News Channel app. Republic Bharat. China is completely free of COVID now

At similar vax levels the UK was able to open up more because cases were significantly less. The difference: they had real lockdowns as opposed to fake lockdowns in Ontario. fordnation

Fock you cousin IT

News Flash: This was going to happen anyway

CTVToronto What a privilege! Aren't we all so lucky! I'm pro science and pro vaccine, but I'm sick to death of this painfully inept leadership and their condescending approach to lockdowns and restrictions. Good luck stopping me from seeing my family and friends who are vaccinated 🖕

CTVToronto promises, promises, Our Government has been saying for over a year. They keep changing vaccines recommendations, doses intervals. Keeping small businesses closed while hundreds of ppl go to Walmart. They have no idea what they are doing. CanadianPM fordnation globalnews

See that hypocrite in the background! Now under investigation. Who gives these people the right to dictate whether you have a great summer or not, or any aspect of your life for that matter!

Vaccines do stop transmission.

If there was a degree in common sense none of these comedians would have jobs...

It would be nice if Ramara residents could get better access to vaccines, I have submitted on many sites and no response.

Good, I’ll tell the group of 20 special people I saw in the Timmies parking lot last night.

Being hopeful I see again government. There is no way people are going to stop gathering this year and there isn't much the government will be able to do. People are sick of this BS and are ready to move on from this with or without your permission.

Ridiculous. My whole family got their first dose and they have to wait until summers pretty much over to get their second. I have a baby on the way and you wanna talk about target's being met but not enough research on this bs for me to trust it won't do anything harmful to my

I don’t like the “75% fully vaccinated” rule. We can’t control those who chose not to get vaxxed. Once those that want to be vaxxed are, we need to open up fully. We can’t be held hostage by dummies that won’t get vaxxed - let them get COVID so we can reach herd immunity.

I'll do what I want thanks.

Really? No more lockdowns ? Waiting for the 4th

These are the same officials allowing planes with covid infected passengers to keep landing in Canada daily

Then make more vaccines available faster and second shots sooner

Same folks fighting masking, social distancing and gatherings will be the hold outs for the vaccine. Fully vaccinated should be allowed out now.

Fun

Refer to the CDC...well done

There are approximately 331 million people in the USA and 118 million are fully vaccinated while the whole country is eligible for 1st and second doses of vaccine while canada has only 37.5 million and they can't even get full eligibility for 1st dose. We need a new government.

Clown show continues. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Then get us the vaccine!!!!

This is what I think of 'IF'

Planning on spending Winter in FLA😀. Screw that messed up country..

Total, utter, failure.

Tam and Liberals can eat a bag of doorknobs and choke on the keyholes. If Im fully vaccinated, 8 ain't following shit. 😤

Thank you for letting us be free again

Or what ? Who the F cares what the say, live your lives cowards

Vaccinated people are spreading the virus. They need to isolate for 14 days after vaccination. They're making others sick!

Vaccinated people are making others sick! Vaccinated people isolate for 14 days!

I believe the U.K. and U.S. are about half a mile ahead of Canada in this case.

No amounts of dosages will stop what’s coming for Canadians. Masks and lockdowns are forever. That’s the plan

Dr Tam is a communist infiltrator from the Chinese communist party.

Oh sick... thanks!

Tams avatar should be 🤦🏻‍♂️

Fuck you Tam I'll do what I want 🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

So the carrot 🥕 for now when the stick?

Thanks for this - but BREAKING.....already doing it. If I’d had to wait for permission....🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Get your mask on Tammie!

What the Hey! Tammie hasn't got a mask on!

Says who? I'll do what I want thanks...

I'll be doing all of these things vaccine or not.

Anyone who has medical conditions can not take vaccines that made from zeneca or Johnson and Johnson, my pharmacist told me, so I am not taking any vaccines for the fear of risks to my health.. I don't understand why they are not telling the public about risks for ppl about it

Bunch of BS. I already do small gathering already. Fuk them agenda21 Don't believe everything the government tells you. propaganda

Don’t write cheques your mouth can’t cash. Over promise and under deliver. Unless you Put your job and pension on the line, don’t make promises.

Welcome to the one dose summer ….that slogan did last long

I think that lady needs a vitamin.

Yup. Follow Americans. America junior.

Oh you mean like we are doing already? Who said you are in charge anyhow?

I’ll be outside regardless. Lose weight get vitamin d and live

People are so fed up with this lock down after lock down we have become the laughing stock of North America or maybe even the world who are these idiots making these decisions what do they know that no one else knows .

They can go fuck themselves I am free and vaccinated.

Clowns.

Normal people never stopped having “gatherings” 🙄 We DO NOT CARE about your stupid covid cult rules

These people should be fired.... Meanwhile the USA has over 100M people fully vaccinated... yet here we are... Absolutely appalling!!!!!

And whose responsibility is it to meet the targets ?

Essentially people are being told to choose between an experimental vaccine to which the creator nor the government can be held accountable for if there is a reaction or death - or - live under house arrest?!

Respectfully, f**k the government.

That's a big If.

Mike_in_Mb Note to TheresaTam...the horse has already left the barn.🤣

IF ... MAKE SOME HERE IN CANADA AND THEN YOU WILL SAY WHEN AND NOT IF

canada is broken. incompetent governments at all levels. provinces be better off becoming independent countries at this point.

Maybe we can get back to normal when we vote the liberals out. I need protection from you idiots!!

We should not need a foreign born unelected employee telling us how to live our lives in Canada. ....that makes me angry, why isn't our parliament involved, we pay them enough

Why should we listen to them at this point ?! They’ve lied and dropped the ball so many times already..

BREAKING - I’m enjoying a large gathering indoors, enjoying some fantastic food without having to meet vaccine targets. 👍 GLYF

How do you say 'Fuck You Commie' in Mandarin? lol

Our globalist communist overlords will allow us to go outside as long as we erode our health with their poison? Oh thank you gracious leaders!

This android has been in charge for way too long

Lol what a joke

So absolutely nothing has changed in 12 months 😳😳😳🙈🙈🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦pathetic whosincharge? TrudeauVaccineFailure

Quit trying to hold the vaccine over our heads. How about we get together anyway?

i see a tyrant

Anyone else sick of these 'you can have your dessert if you eat your vegetables' messages?

Ok, Satan witch. 👍

Expect movement of goal posts.

Fuck them. I’m having small family gatherings outdoors whether they like it or not.

I'll do it anyway.

If you are vaccinated, can you let someone into ‘the circle’ who is not if they are willing to take the risk with their health?

This Canadian will enjoy my summer the way I choose. Canada, the land of the free!!

Data, Data, and hard data needed. FOIA

Media and government narrative tying vaccines to freedom must end. The pushing of EUA vaccines that should be in trial phase should be individuals choice. Mr Trudeau end the charade TrudeauVaccineFailure

Another smoke screen.....enough already. Canadian government is a joke

Tam is a clueless nitwit. But she sure loves her limelight.

Not in NS. According to StrangRobert IainTRankin

This is BS.

Blackmail. No other word for this.

Holding us for ransom.

Stop talking please!!

Don’t believe anything she says. Seems to change her view daily.

Canadians don't need Dr. TAM'S approval.

I look forward to voting your Gov’t out of office first chance we get. Can you say clueless.

I am DONE!!!!! Got my first dose but since the federal government could not secure enough we will have to wait another 4 months for the second dose....I make my own risk assessment now. F this ridiculous government. Time to LIVE!

Open crown land ffs we camp 15 minutes away with the same people from our community that we are around everyday

Everyone just be happy and stop complaining!

fordnation would be nice if Ford started working and had a plan FordMustResign

My second shot not until July 29 rip summer

Thank you ONT GOV not sure how I made it though the first 48 years of my life without you fully controlling it. You all are making the best decisions for us, I am sure. The rest of the world is wrong in opening up. Our personal mental health is nothing VS Covid you are so right

You know what I'm starting to think that Canadians will bow down to anything. What about Ivermectin it will defeat covid-19 just give us the Ivermectin and let's defeat it this is somewhat about control folks where did these help people where did this happen this power

IF ... wrong wording. I wonder what that thing was ...that code thing ... nuremberg something.. idk. ?

Citizens still getting manipulated and coerced by their Gov't.. any people don't think they're loosing their rights huh 🤔

Yay! 'In the second quarter, which ends in June, Canada is expecting to receive a total of 24.2 million doses from Pfizer, between 10.3 and 12.3 million doses of Moderna, and the government had aimed to see up to 4.4 million doses of AstraZeneca arrive.'

I am now convinced that Dr. Tam runs the country.

Ya ok 👍 🙄 I have nothing nice so that’ll be it.

Bullshit. If I have ten friends at a table inside playing poker in July and were all vaccinated, this should be legal if we’re all taken care of ...

People just do whatever you want. Don’t listen to these fools any longer.

Looking forward to the new guidelines in a month or so.

Does she think no one is paying attention to the US lmao

Sit, stay, good doggy. Now go poop outside and I'll give you a cookie. Who's a good puppy

Oh wow you promise? 😍😂

They’re telling us IF we can reach the target of 75% ppl with first shot vaccination as well as 20% fully vaccinated, we can enjoy outdoor gatherings, camping, hiking & patios. The same stuff we did last summer... without vaccines. 🤨

How about you just do your job and stop telling us what to do ,,this isn’t a prize ,the rest of mother America has already started life but no here in Ontario that’s to that ass hat PM fordnation

An hour ago. I guess anti maskers and deniers think it’s okay

Except golf in Ontario!

Just like “just 2 more weeks” over a year later

Isn’t this kinda of a form of blackmail!?

Vaccine is experimental , what right do they have to make this statement. What targets. Hmmm good choice of words.

Eat shit! We are over this BS. Do as you please people. That’s the only way these power hungry control freaks will get it. Gather indoors/outdoors, vaxed or unvaxed. Oh and take that useless mask off too. Let’s run our own bloody lives.

This is unbelievable 😳, I get this is a pandemic, but honestly this is getting ridiculous!!! This a Dictatorship!

Like children getting a treat.

Keep on dangling that carrot. Give us all something to look forward to, then when it's time pull the rug out from under us. Keep pushing that vaccine. 👍

Inside, outside, upside down.

🤣🤣😂🤣 your about six months late you political hacks

Yes thanks to an intelligent panel of experts & politicians who are too proud to work with the worldwide community going through the same pandemic and obtain successful measures so they can use same role modelling on Canadians.

Okay so wait, What about the people who absolutely cannot receive the vaccine for medical reasons; I guess they just sit in their house, alone - for the rest of their lives?

IF? Charter of Rights and Freedoms Who gave Tam so much power over our lives?

No confidence in her...shines poorly, but sadly, on the title “Dr”.

Thanks Justin RemoveThePM

Yeah, 2022 summer

CTVToronto 1. Won't be taking the jab It's not FDA approved, long term trials are NOT completed, Nuremberg Trials prevent forced jabs 2. Won't be listening to any of this 3. Expect an avalanche of charter challenges, see you in court

With AZ gone and Moderna now available at the pharmacies, this definitely looks doable. Can’t wait for a normal summer!

CTVToronto I don’t care about their targets. As per next week my two children, daughter-in-law and son-in-law, will be vaccinated and I am waiting for my second dose. There! That’s OUR target. We’re gonna have a great FAMILY summer!!

She’s still talking? Ugh

Is there a reason why vaccinated people can't get together?

I’m gonna look forward to whatever I want, F the government

Julietteandraj Oooooo lucky us! F off

Oh wow eh , such a privilege . Thankssssss

Oh gee thanks tam

What a bunch of clowns. PMJT has totally screwed this vaccine procurement up so bad that Canadians will never get back to normal this year. It’s a joke that he thinks a one jab summer is here, we have people waiting for their second jab, now what move the goal posts out again

I calculate my own risks

Unreal should of sent all the kids to camp getaways ski resorts Disneyland all expenses paid and let covid run it’s course 99.96% would of came-back fully and properly immune after 14 days without any medical intervention or hospitalization!vaccinate those at high risk !
