Didn't realize how many small ski areas there are in Ontario. There are 50 in the Ontario Ski Resort Association. The point of the online petition started by a father is that other forms of outdoors sports are allowed to operate with appropriate adjustments, so ski areas/resorts should be able to do the same.

Petition is not getting any ground with the government. They are concerned that skiing injuries will take space that Covid needs.

And today there are to be new measure announced. Just waiting on them.

Wish I put Blue Mountain on my Ikon pass!
