We ask that you all respect the security staff and measures in place. The security are there to help, to assist, and protect our community in guarding against the threat of the COVID-19 virus.
Our Curfew is an Ermineskin Law in effect. Any violation of the law will be dealt with and fines can be issued. RCMP will be notified of individuals in violation of the law. We hope people understand the regulations at this time, and cooperate with the restrictions in place. They are in place in regards to safety for many of our elders and those at high risk.
These Security Measures and Security questions on a person’s travel are being asked; this information for example can be utilized to assist should there be an outbreak in the community.
That travel information can be used for the Health Officials in their investigations in tracking the locations the positive case has travelled. They must trace back over a period of 2 weeks, tracing back on memory for some may find that difficult. The quicker this information is known the quicker they can help stop the spread.
We understand the inconvenience for our members when going through checkpoints, however we ask for your patience as they are there to help the benefit of the nation. It is important to understand these safety measures are in place to help ALL our neighbours and families.
