BARRIE -- Wahta First Nation has announced the closure orders on retailers have been lifted in the community.
The Chippewas of Rama First Nation and Mohawks of Wahta First Nation closed all non-essential businesses, including those selling tobacco, on April 9 to limit traffic to the community amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
In a Facebook update, the Council of Wahta announced it was slowly reopening retail shops.
The Wahta Station reopened its doors this week, with safety measures in place, including allowing only two people inside the store at one time.
