La Loche a remote town whose residents are mostly Dene and nearby Clearwater River Dene Nation, experienced one of the worst outbreaks in the province in the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. The outbreak, last April, was labelled one of the most concerning in Canada; it was so bad the government isolated the entire northern half of Saskatchewan. The first case of transmission within the community was traced back to an oil worker who travelled back from the Kearl Lake plant in Alberta. By May, the plant had been linked to 100 COVID-19 cases across four provinces.
Oil, gas, and mining industries were designated as “essential services,” meaning hundreds of temporary industry employees were working and living together at work camps. Throughout the pandemic, industry activity has been responsible for outbreaks, including in Northern Saskatchewan.
