Sources say the timeline will include details and guidelines for the reopening of a number of businesses and services currently restricted.
It is not clear, however, if the government will take a regional approach to Stage 3 as was the case with previous stages, or if the entire province will enter Stage 3 at the same time.
According to a reopening plan released by the government in April, Stage 3 includes the following:
- WWI memorial statue relocated in Winnipeg, rededicated to all who served
- Deportation hearing for Indian extortion suspect halted when officials can’t find him
- Alberta nurses union wants weapons screening, more officers at hospitals due to violence
- International probe disrupts $62M in crypto fraud, freezes $16M
- Open all workplaces “responsibly.”
- Further relaxing restrictions on public gatherings.
- Continued restrictions on large public gatherings, including concerts and sporting events until the “foreseeable future.”
- Continued protections for vulnerable populations and continued practice of physical distancing.
The plan states that remote working arrangements should continue when possible as economic activity resumes.
