If it’s 7:30 p.m. and you live in Box Grove, Markham, chances are you’re on your porch jumping up and down banging on a tin can or dancing.

Residents in this part of Markham have responded to a challenge issued by the Registered Nurses Association of Ontario.

The association asked everyone — beginning March 19 at 7:30 p.m. and every evening after that — to cheer on millions of health providers, social service and other front-line workers in Ontario and around the world who are tackling #COVID19.
