Flin Flon’s exhibition of a replica of the famed Witness Blanket is underway. The piece is now open for the public to see at City Hall until late next month.
In the statement, which was posted on the social media channels of all three communities, Fidler, Huntley and Lentowicz each called on area residents to remain vigilant and not let our guard down to contain the spread of COVID-19. We must all remember to adhere to the fundamentals of wearing a mask, practicing physical distancing and washing our hands frequently. As the three communities cover an area in both Manitoba and Saskatchewan, different rules and health orders apply in each community. For example, while Manitoba has restricted all private gatherings (both indoor and outdoor) and has temporarily disallowed all outdoor public gatherings, Saskatchewan currently - as of May 25 - has fewer restrictions in place. While private indoor gatherings are temporarily barred and indoor gatherings are restricted to household members only, up to 10 people are still allowed to meet outdoors, both on public and private property.
