The protestors were not wearing masks, there were more than 5 persons in attendance at an organized public event and they were not consistently maintaining the required 6 feet of distance. Police issued three tickets under the Reopening Ontario Act for failing to adhere to the required restrictions. Each ticket carries an $880 dollar set fine.
