New restrictions will make holidays tougher for Cape Breton entertainers, businesses

Under the new restrictions, restaurants and licensed establishments across the province have to stop serving by 10 p.m. and close by 11 p.m. Doyle says for himself, and others in the entertainment and service industries, the impact is big.
