Thus, characterizing the evolution of the SARS-Co V-2 mutational landscape in the Canadian province of Ontario as a microcosm can reveal in part how Ontario-specific public health decisions and the introduction of novel variants during different time-based epochs may in part be associated with changes in the mutational landscape.

SARS-CoV-2 Surveillance System in Canada: Longitudinal Trend Analysis

Cases in Ontario rose a month later [12]. Quebec soon became Canada’s first epicenter, likely due to southern travel into the United States during its winter school break, which occurred two weeks prior to lockdown measures implemented in mid-March [5]. Figure 1 shows the timeline of COVID-19 in Canada. Fast forward one year later, Canada has had a resurgence of COVID-19 infections and has reimplemented public health guidelines to control the COVID-19 epidemic.
