Police investigate after residents trapped inside their rooms at Courtice, Ont., retirement home

Police are investigating after the operator of a Courtice, Ont., private retirement home removed door handles from a "small number" of suites of residents who had reportedly tested positive for COVID-19.

On Saturday, Const. George Tudos, spokesperson for Durham Regional Police, said police were made aware of the situation at White Cliffe Terrace Retirement Residence on Friday afternoon after someone came forward. Courtice is about 60 kilometres east of Toronto.

Verve Senior Living, the company which operates the home, said in a statement on Friday that a "small number" of resident suite door handles were removed in the home's assisted living section.

"It was a violation of our protocols and practices. As soon as we became aware of the incident, all residents' door handles were immediately reinstalled," David Bird, president and CEO of Verve Senior Living, said in the statement.

Bird said the home's general manager was immediately placed on leave once the company learned of the incident.

Sounds like they are sorry only because they got caught. Canada is some kind of dystopian hell these days, isn't it? First the Kiwis, then the Aussies, and now you guys. Seems your Trudeau is all hot and bothered for euthanizing the elderly as well.

Vioilation of protocols and practices? You guys do not have fire regulations up there? The guy would probably have been in jail down here, and the company would have been sooooo sued.
