COVID-19 Enforcement Update
– – –Province Urges Manitobans to Follow Public Health Orders and Avoid Fines Over the Weekend
The Manitoba government continues to respond to those who violate public health orders and reminds everyone that enforcement officials will be out in full force this weekend to ensure Manitobans are protected at this critical time.
Enforcement officers will be present at rallies, gatherings and events this weekend that are in violation of the current public health orders. Investigations into several recent large gatherings and rallies continue, and additional charges are expected.
As the weather continues to warm up, Manitobans are advised that conservation and park patrol officers will enforce public health and state of emergency orders within provincial parks, and attendants, interpreters and beach safety services will provide education and monitor compliance. Enforcement officers will also be present at shopping centres and Manitobans are reminded that only one person per household will be allowed to enter a business.
The best way to protect yourself and your loved ones is to stay home when possible, limit your contacts, wear a mask and maintain physical distancing when in public.
Manitobans can report compliance and enforcement issues by visiting www.manitoba.ca/COVID19 and completing the reporting form, or by calling 204-945-3744 or (toll-free) 1-866-626-4862 and pressing option three on the call menu.
