Ontario Health Minister Christine Elliott confirmed on Monday that the province had made a request to the federal government for assistance from the Canadian Armed Forces or the Red Cross due to increasing numbers of COVID-19 patients in intensive care units, adding they were waiting to hear back for a response. Asked why the request wasn’t made earlier, Elliott said it was an additional way to get more assistance.
