PHASE 4 PART 2 TO BEGIN ON JUNE 29
The Government of Saskatchewan says the second half of Phase four of the Reopening Saskatchewan plan will begin on June 29.
Museums, libraries, galleries, movie theatres and live theatres will be permitted to reopen.
Speaking Thursday, Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe said the reopening dates for the remaining businesses and facilities in Phase Four will be announced early next week.
This will include casinos, bingo halls, along with indoor sports facilities, like indoor pools and rinks.
Moe also noted the spikes of COVID-19 cases following the reopening of some southern states.
“That’s what can happen and it can happen very quickly if we are not careful,” Moe said.
Although Saskatchewan cases remain relatively low, Moe encourages people to continue to find the right balance of returning to regular activities, while still being attentive to health safety.
“Businesses are open. More people are back at work each and every day. We can go to the beach, we can go to the park and the playground,” Moe said.
“We shouldn’t be scared or worried to do any of these things at any point, but we still have to keep doing things a little differently than we did before.”
The provincial state of emergency has also been extended for another two weeks.
