Ontario Premier Doug Ford, joined by Stephen Lecce, Minister of Education, Dr. Dirk Huyer, Chief Coroner for Ontario, and Dr. David Williams, Chief Medical Officer of Health, made an announcement on Wednesday.
The premier said Tuesday that his government would spend almost $16 million to build a new Catholic elementary school in Etobicoke.
Ford said up to 600 children would be able to attend the new school, and that the facility would result in the creation of 88 new affordable childcare spaces.
Ontario reported 88 new cases of the novel coronavirus on Wednesday, bringing the provincial total to 41,695.
