Apple Stores in Canada will begin reopening their doors to the public today, starting with six locations in the Vancouver area, one in Winnipeg, and one in Halifax. Enhanced health and safety measures will be in place, such as social distancing and reduced operating hours.

The following locations will reopen today, most at 11 a.m. local time:
- Apple Pacific Centre in Vancouver
- Apple Oakridge Centre in Vancouver
- Apple Coquitlam Centre in Coquitlam
- Apple Richmond Centre in Richmond

Apple Stores across Ontario and Quebec remain closed for the time being.
In a letter to customers this week, Apple said that it looks at all available data before deciding to reopen a store, including local cases, near and long‑term trends, and guidance from national and local health officials. Apple also said that it would not rule out the possibility of closing a store again should local conditions warrant.
