COVID-19 in Ontario, Ontario Hubs & The Agenda's Week
An update on issues resulting from COVID-19. As Ontario fights the spread of COVID-19, what lessons from the 2003 SARS epidemic have informed the decisions being made now? The Agenda welcomes key players from that crisis: Tony Clement, the former Ontario minister of health; Paul Cantin, who was then the minister's press secretary; Mike McCarthy, then a senior policy adviser to the Ministry of Health; and Kristina Gentes, then a policy adviser to Premier Ernie Eves. COVID-19's presence in Ontario's northern regions poses a very specific risk to remote and fly-in communities with smaller populations often living in close quarters with far fewer health care options and resources. Northeastern Ontario Hub journalist Nick Dunne provides an update on how those regions are faring in pandemic preparation. The Agenda reviews its week of programming.
