It's not just people wanting to play golf. The shutdown has impacted golf-related businesses and those who work in the industry. If you are in this category, tell me your story.
Taking a break from #Ontario rage golf Twitter.
All I see are job losses, economic damage, massive frustration & no industry plan for now. It's all pretty dispiriting.
I really feel bad for kids who got a summer job at a course, @PGAofOntario pros & kid golfers

These 40 kids represent the 400 at Sawmill. Yes, 400 at 1 golf course out of the 800 in Ontario. Just how many kids are you willing to hurt and for how long?? Open up for the kids. RISE up and SPEAK out. @fordnation@OntarioPCParty@ontario_liberal@OntarioGreens@OntarioNDP
If we are really locking down into June @fordnation , please let's not ignore data on outside transmission ( eg parks, tennis, golf, kids camps ) to put forward a sensible plan that balances safety with common sense. 🙏
Ontario’s science table recommends outdoor amenities like golf courses should open even if stay-at-home order extends. We hear from golfers and find out how the industry is suffering financially. #covid19

@BonnieCrombie@patrickbrownont@BobWeeksTSN@ZeeManGolf@fordnation Mayor Crombie & Brown, thank you so much for your support to open up safe outdoor activities. We applaud the Ontario Govt’s effort to battle this pandemic, but public needs safe ways to maintain mental and physical well-being
Restrictions on outdoor rec need to be lifted. It’s the fair thing to do.
Ontarians are already making huge sacrifices for the collective good.
Outdoor rec allows adults & children to take care of their physical & mental health, and experts say it’s safe with precautions.
@JohnTory@JimWatsonOttawa
The head of the Ontario Science Table just went on the record to state that golf / outdoor recreation is safe
Our simple question: Do you support the science?
Please answer. 1.2 million or more Ontarians are eager to here from you!

“There were 20 million rounds of golf played in Ontario during the pandemic last year and there was not one case of coronavirus, but our industry has been closed down as if there were outbreaks.” https://t.co/5rAxtMTZic
@Jay_Meloff "Along with my colleagues I advocate for decisions based on science. Journalists asked the Science Table's Dr Juni if the Science Table advised the Premier to close golf courses, tennis etc. Dr Juni said "no, of course not, the opposite" ". I agree w @CFifeKW
Who 1st said this
Talking golf with @DamoSpin on @CityNews. Tune in to hear why golfers are frustrated with the province and the significant financial hit the industry is taking daily.
You may soon be able to play golf, tennis and beach volleyball again in Ontario.
The scientific director of Ontario's COVID-19 Science Advisory Table says outdoor activities are low risk.
