ARL and CARL are taking the necessary steps to ensure the health and safety of our member representatives, staff, and guests, and to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in compliance with regulations and other requirements that have been issued by the Province of Ontario, the City of Toronto, and public health officials.
To this end, we are taking the following measures:
- Mandatory Vaccination: Although the Province of Ontario has removed the requirement to provide proof of vaccination, this is a private event, and as such, all attendees (including association employees, member representatives, and guests) will be required to provide proof of full vaccination (currently two doses, or a booster, the last of which was received at least 14 days prior to their attendance) and a photo ID in order to participate in person and to enter meeting and reception spaces. This information will be collected via a third-party service.
- All attendees will be required to self-screen before entering the meeting premises.
- All persons entering or remaining in the premises or in enclosed common areas are encouraged to wear a mask.
- All individuals will be encouraged to perform hand hygiene when entering and leaving the premises.
- The hotel (and meeting-service providers) will ensure the proper cleaning and disinfection of all audiovisual equipment and meeting spaces.
These health measures are subject to change as the pandemic continues to evolve.
