429 new COVID-19 cases detected in BC over the long weekend. Dr. Bonnie Henry orders all nightclubs and banquet halls closed.
In addition, all liquor sales in all bars, pubs and restaurants in the province must cease by 10 p.m. and must close by 11 p.m. unless full meal service is still being provided. If full meal service is still being provided past 11 p.m. that may continue but alcohol is not allowed to be served.
Music or other background sounds, such as televisions, must be no louder than the volume of normal conversation to avoid patrons having to yell close to other people to be heard.
This goes into effect immediately. –> https://globalnews.ca/news/7322698/covid-19-bc-nightclubs-banquet-halls-ordered-closed-again/

“It would have been so nice. I don’t know what the circumstances behind it were, but it would have been nice,” he said. –> https://etcanada.com/news/688241/ozzy-osbourne-doesnt-have-the-slightest-interest-in-a-black-sabbath-reunion-show/
