Well, here in my city of Ottawa Canada, the LCS have been officially allowed to open for several weeks. The ones that I frequent have reported that business was very slow at first, but has been picking up a bit. One I have heard is only open via appointment. At first they were selling more than they were buying, and in particular very little silver and gold was coming in. As you may know, for many shops trading silver and gold were a significant chunk of their business. They still cannot reliably get bulk orders for the bullion rounds like the Maple Leaf, which are still selling for a hefty premium over bullion.
At least one vest pocket dealer I know is still busy via his contacts and his advertisements in Kijiji (similar to craigslist). However, he obviously does not make his living from this.
Local shows are not operational and I have no idea when they will start up again.
