Keep It Close to Home this Family Day Week

Keeping COVID-19 transmission low means building best public health practices into all your plans this Family Day week.  Take the opportunity to get outdoors for your physical and mental health, even if it means adding an extra layer of long underwear.

  • Stay safe this Family Day week by keeping your plans within your immediate household.
  • If you are headed outdoors, you may gather in groups of 10 with two metres of physical distancing between household groups.  Food should not be shared between non-household members.
  • Stay close to home.  Non-essential travel is not recommended at this time.  Travel outside our borders means you will be subject to the public health requirements for that jurisdiction, including mandatory quarantine upon return from any international destination.

Enforcing Public Health Measures

Enforcement of public health orders is permitted under The Public Health Act, 1994.  Public health inspectors will be supported in their efforts to ticket violators to ensure that businesses and events are brought into compliance as quickly as possible, in addition to the enforcement efforts that have been undertaken by police agencies throughout the province.

For more information on the current public health measures or to see the Public Health Order, visit www.saskatchewan.ca/covid19-measures.
