Brampton’s tough stance on illegal gatherings and other emergency-measures violations has led to 59 summonses being issued for people now liable for penalties of up to $100,000 for COVID-19 breaches. Fines for summons can range up to $100,000 and are at the discretion of the Justice of the Peace.

There were 58 new cases on Sept. 16 compared to 39 new cases reported in Peel the day before. Loading... Loading... Loading... Loading... Loading...
