Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston announced on Wednesday that the province will eliminate all COVID-19 restrictions as of March 21 so long as everything “stays the course.”

The proof of vaccination policy in the province, which only allowed fully-vaccinated Nova Scotians to take part in “discretionary activities” such as dining in a restaurant, will be removed Feb. 28.

The province is set to begin Phase 2 of its latest reopening plan a week early on March 7, with some adjustments.

Bars, restaurants and gyms will be allowed to operate at 75 per cent capacity with distancing “as much as can be achieved,” said Strang.

Informal gatherings indoors will remain at 25 people, but increase to 50 outdoors.

Masking will still be required in indoor public spaces, but as of March 7, people can remove their masks to eat while seated at concerts, movies and sporting events.
