Re: Government of Saskatchewan – COVID 19 Restrictions
Today, the Government of Saskatchewan announced new measures to address health care capacity pressures caused by rising case rates, primarily driven by the unvaccinated population.
Mandatory Masking Indoor Public Spaces
Effective Friday, September 17, 2021 an interim province-wide mandatory masking order will be implemented for all indoor public spaces.
Indoor public spaces are any enclosed space other than a private home or dwelling. This may include but is not exclusive to workplaces, retail locations, recreational venues, eating and dining establishments and professional buildings. “Indoor public spaces” includes those areas of a business or venue that are restricted to staff only (areas where there is no access for the public).
