Feedback and policy revision

On mask-mandatory days (WED + FRI)

Masking

  1. All people entering the space wear well-fitting, high-filtration masks of KN95 grade or better, not surgical masks.
    1. N95, KN95, KF94 grade or better is required.
    2. There are free N95-equivalent masks at the entrance in different sizes and formats from donatemask.ca.
  2. Masks are mandatory for the whole 24 hours so from midnight to midnight on these days, regardless of how many people are in the space. Friday is masked until 6:45PM on the 4th Friday of the month due to a recurrent event booking.
    1. Event policy: no exemptions for events to be unmasked on masked day, except for TRAPs transfem teatime.
  3. Eating and drinking that requires one to fully remove their mask is not allowed in the space. The mask should not be off your face for more than a few seconds: If you want to sip a drink or take a bite of something, your mask should be pulled down quickly.

On the other days (MON, TUE, THU, FRI, SAT, SUN)

Masking

  1. Masking is not required. Most people in the space are unmasked.
  2. We strongly encourage everyone to wear a mask, especially if there is someone masked in the space. Even if they don't ask you, they would really like for you to mask in the space you share. We protect each other. Masking is harm reduction.

Always (MON-SUN)
