A virtual Town Hall meeting was held on May 8, 2020 for the Town of Caledon, where Ontarioโ€™s Solicitor General, Sylvia Jones made the following statement regarding boarders accessing their horsesโ€

โ€œTo be clear: the ability to visit and ride your horse today is allowed. You cannot do it in group lessons, you cannot do it in competitions because that would contravene the emergency order of public events of more than five [people]. If you are looking at making sure that your horse is looked after, is being exercised properly, you can do that today.โ€

Allan Thompson, Mayor of the Town of Caledon, said, โ€œEvents canโ€™t happen, but as far as prepping horses and training or both as far as Iโ€™m concerned here in Caledon and most municipalities you can still go forward and do that as long as you are exercising distancing.โ€
