Due to the COVID-19 protocols in effect in Ontario, the DOCC has had to make adjustments to some of the processes most of you are familiar with in order to run our event. We will be adhering to all COVID-19 social distancing guidelines in effect at the time of our event. Government guidelines can be found at https://covid-19.ontario.ca/.
