Refugee advocates beseech bylaw to 'warn and inform' after man handed $880 fine
Article from CBC News Ottawa relaying an incident in which a young man allowed his siblings to play in a playground not knowing it was out of bounds and received a fine as a result. The article goes on to discuss how misinformation communicated to refugees, and language barriers make them more likely to break covid19 restrictions and be issued fines when they have no malicious intent or are simply ill informed. *Hillary Johnstone, CBC News Ottawa
