Premier Doug Ford is telling residents to stay cautious after news broke that Ontario's third wave of COVID-19 has been declared.

Making comments to reporters on Tuesday, Ford said "we can't let our guard down for a second" and must continue to follow COVID-19 protocols as the province is predicted to reach its highest case counts yet.
