Ontario health minister won’t say if province will establish ‘safe zones’ for hospitals amid anti-vax protests

Ontario Health Minister Christine Elliott, in the wake of anti-vaxxer protests outside hospitals on Monday, would not say Tuesday if they will legislate safe zones for such health-care buildings but would like to get a better understanding from those proposing the idea what it would entail. She also stressed people can protest, but not if it impedes health-care workers.
