A southwestern Ontario golf course has been charged after it opened up for business illegally, despite provincial COVID-19 stay-at-home orders.
The Bridges at Tillsonburg operated for almost a week before Ontario Provincial Police charged the business with failure to comply under the Ontario Reopening Act on Thursday.
Last Saturday, tee-times were fully booked at the Bridges in defiance of COVID-19 restrictions. Ontario’s stay-at-home order includes the closure of golf courses and most other outdoor activities until at least May 20.
Under the act, corporations who fail to comply face a fine of up to $10,000,000.
Police said the case is scheduled to be heard at the Ontario Court of Justice in Woodstock on June 3.
