COVID-19 - Resources

Wanted: Your ideas

Do you have an idea how a temporary rule or regulation change could further the fight against Covid-19? The province is asking for such suggestions, especially from business owners. Key objectives are to:

  • Assist health care systems to meet emergency needs.
  • Assist businesses in retooling or producing essential or health-related products and supplies.
  • Make it easier for businesses facing unexpected challenges, who are trying to operate remotely or in a non-traditional fashion.
The province respects and values the creativity of entrepreneurs. Temporary rule change ideas could range from truck cab safety barriers to online innovation suggestions. Please submit your ideas to this site.


As Ontario’s green professionals continue to prepare for the lifting of emergency work restrictions, everyone agrees: Today is the time to implement new safety protocols. This means much more than making lists; it means implementing everyday processes to create a new safety awareness. Both company owners and staff members should practice the processes to make them part of your everyday routine, according to company owners who have already started this journey.

LO’s Safety Protocols section on the Covid-19 Resource Hub is a top resource. You will find sector-specific protocols, plus other information that will save time and money, and maybe even lives.

Take special note of the PPE and Safety Product Suppliers list at the bottom of the Safety Protocols section. This list is constantly updated to help you source the supplies your company needs.

Another top concern is restroom facilities for field staff. Find download links for the GoHere washroom locator app on the Safety Protocols page, as well as Ontario 511 Traveller Information’s Trucker Mode interface, including the Truck Rest Area layer, and privately-owned Truck Friendly Stops.


Thanks to all the Landscape Ontario members working together to plant hope.
