This is another exciting development for Great Canadian and our recovery from the impact of the pandemic, stated Terrance Doyle, the Company's Interim Chief Executive Officer. Importantly, these reopenings mean over 1,000 of our team members returning to work and generating revenue for the Province and our communities.
