Representatives from Ontario's restaurant industry are voicing frustration after Minister for Heritage, Sport, Tourism and Culture Lisa MacLeod failed to show up for a meeting to deal with their concerns over ongoing capacity restrictions.

“I would say extremely disappointed the Minister did not attend the meeting,” restauranteur Paul Bognar told CP24 following the meeting Tuesday. “Some of her staff did, but Minister MacLeod herself did not.”

“Minister MacLeod has made herself available to stakeholders throughout the pandemic, including through an ongoing restaurant working group, 14 Ministerial advisory committees, and several dozen town halls and webinars,” a spokesperson said in an email.

“We would have thought that Minister McLeod or Minister Elliott or the premier himself would have attended this call,” Bognar said. “I mean there's 450,000 people employed in the restaurant business in the province of Ontario. We've been the hardest hit sector; you’d think that would have taken a priority.”

Proof of vaccination and masks are required, but fans are allowed to remove their masks for eating and drinking.
