Mothers and infants enjoyed the water at local splash pads in Summerside. Parishioners attended Friday morning mass at St. Dunstan's Basilica in Charlottetown, and some marked the occasion by preparing for the opening of the racing season at the Red Shores track.
Playgrounds, racetracks and places of worships were just some spaces impacted by further easing of COVID-19 restrictions in Phase 4, which began Friday.
Phase 4 will allow for gatherings of up to 50 people, with multiple gatherings in larger venues to a maximum of 100. Personal services like facials and piercings will also now be permitted, and those living in long-term care facilities will be able to enjoy indoor visits.
