Drone Delivery Canada is deemed an essential workplace

Drone Delivery Canada has announced it is considered an “Essential Workplace”, as designated by the Ontario Provincial Government, meaning business operations remain ongoing.

As Canada deals with COVID-19, the company remains diligent and is following all recommendations from Health Canada sources.

Michael Zahra, President & CEO of DDC, explained: “The company is in dialogue with Provincial & Federal Governments at various Ministries and with First Nations communities, emphasizing that the current situation is an ideal use-case for our proven drone logistics solution.

“Drones limit person-to-person contact, bring needed medical and pharmaceutical supplies to remote, rural and suburban communities, transport blood samples to laboratories for testing and deliver other relevant supplies needed for Canada to effectively manage the current situation.”

Zahra added: “This is especially true for Aboriginal communities who live remotely, and with an already stressed healthcare infrastructure, and in many cases, unfortunately, underlying health issues.

“The Company commends all the front-line professionals fighting this pandemic and we hope that you and your loved ones remain safe and healthy as Canada effectively navigates through this successfully.”
