No New Restrictions For Saskatchewan

Premier Scott Moe has announced there will be no new public health measures despite growing numbers of new COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations due to the Omicron variant.


The premier made his announcement on Monday during a provincial COVID-19 update with Health Minister Paul Merriman. This was the first time Mow has appeared at a COVID-19 provincial update since he tested positive for the virus on Jan. 13.

Moe pointed out that Saskatchewan does have rising hospitalization admissions, but said they remain lower compared to other provinces. He also announced they won’t be looking at reimplementing public health measures at this time and they are avoiding the economic and psychological harm and the infringement on personal freedoms that are often caused by lockdowns.

Meili and the official opposition have been calling on the Saskatchewan government to establish stronger health measures, including gathering limits, and to bring in more support for schools.
