Mandatory quarantine is in effect now for any Canadians still returning home from abroad as part of the federal plan to combat the COVID-19 epidemic. Canadians who ignore the federal government’s demand that they isolate themselves for 14-days risk severe financial penalties and even imprisonment. Health authorities for the Eastern Ontario region welcome the mandatory quarantine order but want more details on how it will be enforced at Canada-U.S. border crossings to deal with Canadians returning home by car or RV. —supplied photo
