Come Thursday, vendors at the Parkdale and ByWard Markets will be back in business, but the head of Ottawa Markets says it won't be business as usual. The markets were forced to close in March because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The plan is to reopen them later this week for fewer days and reduced hours, along with plenty of hand sanitizer. So I think it's going to perhaps provide a different feeling in the market," said Zach Dayler, executive director of Ottawa Markets. He said there will also be fewer vendors at both markets, and each vendor will only be able to serve a maximum of two to three customers at at time.
