(KATHY MICHAELS / iNFOnews.ca) January 12, 2021 - 8:00 AM Christina Skinner has been in the restaurant industry for 25 years, and she’s never had to deal with mistreatment the likes of which she’s endured repeatedly in the last four months. Skinner owns Frankie We Salute You!, a restaurant at 1717 Harvey Ave. Since provincial health orders started requiring everything from masks to reduced occupancy and contact tracing measures there’s been a backlash. “It was the worst when the changes first came into effect. That first week and a half it was unbearable. Every day I had a staff member in tears, someone freaking out or people threatening to sue the host,” Skinner said.
