With a spike in COVID19 cases continuing the City of Vancouver has suspended the business licenses of two restaurants in that city. Both the restaurants did not comply with the tougher restrictions announced by the Province and Dr. Bonnie Henry last week.

Last night we suspended the business licenses for both Gusto's and Corduroy Lounge until April 20, 2021. Both businesses must remain closed during the suspension period. This suspension followed Closure Orders from Vancouver Coastal Health for failing to comply with PHO orders.
