Last week, Ontario's Progressive Conservative Premier Doug Ford announced new lockdown measures, effectively shutting down small establishments like Adamson's Barbecue in Etobicoke while allowing stores like Walmart and Costco to remain open.

In an Instagram video post on Monday evening, Skelly announced that he would be opening his BBQ place for indoor dining.
On Tuesday morning, Skelly arrived to find hundreds of customers waiting for him. On Wednesday, Skelly opened once again. Early in the morning, police had placed locks on the establishment. Yet again, a huge crowd showed up in support of Skelly.
OTHERS FOLLOW SUIT
Express Fitness, a gym in Toronto's east end of Scarborough, has also seen police show up to shut the business down after it too defied orders to remain closed.
Independent MPP Randy Hillier also staged a protest against the lockdown rules today and received a ticket for doing so.
