It’s another Easter holiday under the COVID-19 pandemic and with rising case numbers, Guelph is faced with restrictions similar to last year’s spring long weekend.
While some businesses and services are somewhat unaffected by the pandemic, they are impacted by the statutory holiday and the rest of the holiday long weekend.
Stone Road Mall is closed on Friday and Sunday as are both Walmart locations in the city.
