On March 20, 2020, the Ontario government made an order under section 7.1 of the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act to suspend limitation periods and procedural time periods. The suspension is retroactive to March 16, 2020.
The suspension is a response to the recent declaration of emergency in Ontario due to the Covid-19 outbreak, which caused the courts and administrative tribunals to close their doors. All hearings will be rescheduled and timelines for all types of proceedings are suspended for the duration of the emergency, subject to the discretion of the court, tribunal or other decision-makers responsible for the proceeding.
