Photo essay: Here’s what Toronto looks like during the COVID-19 pandemic

With Canadians encouraged to partake in social isolation, I wondered what some of the busiest spots in Toronto would look like at midday, and whether anyone would be found roaming. Seeing City Hall, Yonge-Dundas Square and the Eaton Centre all but empty was a strange sight. However, it was an encouraging sign that hopefully we are starting to take this seriously. These photos were taken on March 19.

All stores are now closed in the CF Eaton Centre.
