Manitoba hands out 33 tickets at private gatherings last week, vaccine eligibility updated Back to video
The province issued 20 tickets for a gathering at The Forks on April 25 and have followed up with two tickets at a rally in Winkler this past Saturday and four tickets at a rally at the Winnipeg Law Courts on Monday. The rally in front of the courts was related to an eight-day hearing as seven churches challenge the health orders which have had churches shut down or under restricted capacities for much of the last 14 months. These fines will be included in next week’s report.
