Ontario says it’s keeping its stay-at-home order in place until at least June 2 and Quebec has become the latest province to stop giving Oxford-AstraZeneca’s COVID-19 shot as a first dose.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford says public health measures are driving down cases, but restrictions need to continue a few weeks longer so that the province can return to some degree of normal this summer.
