coronavirus pandemic.“It’s not just kindness to visitors but it’s also kindness to other residents,” Paterson said.Recently, the City of Kingston and KFL&A Public Health both released statements saying they have received complaints from some Kingstonians who expressed fear of visitors coming from outside the city, which they say has caused unwelcoming behaviour.“I’ve heard of reports of people that have been turned away, denied service or haven’t been treated well because they have an out-of-province licence plate, so I think that was the driving force in this particular statement,” Paterson said.Paterson did not specify which businesses turned away visitors.Since Stage 2 of reopening began in Kingston, the city has made it clear that.
