Masks become mandatory in Peel and Durham Region 

This includes areas such as malls, as well as grocery, and retail stores. 

The move comes after Dr. Loh, the Medical Officer of Health for Peel announced that masks should become as "indispensable to your outings as your wallet or your keys."

These two regions join the City of Toronto, who made masks mandatory on July 7.
