Covid-19 News & Updates

As of February 14, 2022, Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe has ended the Covid-19 proof-of-vaccination/negative test policy and the plan is to remove the remaining health orders, including mandatory masking, at the end of the month. Members are reminded that the CDSS IPC Interim Protocol - Phase 6 will remain in effect until further notice.
