People in Edmonton may continue shopping, dining and riding public transit without wearing masks, interim city manager Adam Laughlin told council at a meeting Thursday. But Laughlin said the city strongly encourages people to wear masks in public places, such as on public transit. Toronto will require people to wear masks in all indoor public places, starting next week. Several councillors expressed concern that masks haven't been made mandatory, especially on public transit. Andrew Knack said he was concerned that only about half the riders he has seen on public transit are wearing masks.
