Description

Our project aims to analyze the ways in which various jurisdictions across Canada and Ontario have responded to the COVID-19 pandemic and its subsequent impacts. Specifically, we are examining the legal, ethical and policy dimensions that must be considered when enacting restrictive public health measures such as physical distancing, stay home orders, and masks, among others. We hope to use GIS to make an interactive map and timeline of the measures identified above. With this data and timeline, our end goal is to analyze the legal, ethical, and policy dimensions that must be considered when “scaling back” We hope that this tool can inform public health decisions for future pandemic preparedness and response.
