Ontario will be giving out COVID-19 rapid antigen tests for free at pop-up sites across Toronto and the GTA to reduce the risk of transmission over the holiday season.

As part of the government’s enhanced testing strategy, from December to mid-January, up to two million rapid tests will be given at pop-up sites in busy locations for free at malls, retail settings, holiday markets, public libraries, transit hubs and the LCBO.
