The wait is over – Ontario's border restrictions with Manitoba and Quebec will be ending this Wednesday.

Solicitor General Sylvia Jones said in a statement that the announcement comes after, "the province's successful transition to Step One of Roadmap to Reopen, and with the approval of the Chief Medical Officer of Health."

This means that as of Wednesday, June 16 at 12:01 a.m., people will be able to enter Ontario through its interprovincial land border and vice versa.

However, those entering Ontario must follow the province's public health measures.

The order, which closed land and water borders with Manitoba and Quebec, was implemented in April. Residents were only able to cross the border for essential purposes.
