Where to Buy Reusable Face Masks in Canada
By Simon Hung
May 19, 2020Cities across Canada are slowly re-opening, which means more people will be outside as local governments ease their stay-at-home orders and allow stores to open for business.
You'll likely see a few people wearing masks, as public health officials recommend wearing one as a precaution when outside or in situations where physical distancing isn't possible. In fact, several retailers including Apple, Longo's, Starbucks, T&T Supermarket and Whole Foods Market have implemented policies asking customers to wear a mask or face covering, in some cases denying entry without one.
Here are a few places where you can buy reusable masks for adults and kids in Canada – all masks listed are not medical-grade and considered face coverings. Actual medical-grade masks and respirators should be reserved for health care and frontline workers.

While face coverings do not offer the same protection as a medical-grade mask, they do act as an additional barrier that can help mitigate the spread of infectious airborne particles and keep those around you safer when you're outdoors.
