Update from the Legislature - May 12

Last week the province introduced additional restrictions for regions with at least 50 COVID cases per 100,000 people and at least 30 active COVID cases. These restrictions will remain in place for at least three weeks with the possibility of being extended. The province also implemented a new enforcement protocol to crackdown on flagrant, repeat violators of public health orders. The legislature remains adjourned until May 17 due to ongoing public health concerns related to COVID-19.
