Saskatchewan businesses try to adopt appropriate proof-of-vaccination policies

Over the weekend Saskatchewan businesses and its customers adapted to the proof-of-vaccine policy, and the new mandate has left some confused.

Saskatoon Hilltops fan Breanna Quiring was expecting to be asked for her proof-of-vaccine upon entry into Sunday's Hilltops' game.

"It’s actually very confusing, I had to ask a couple of times," Quiring said. “It’s just very confusing as to where this does apply and where it doesn’t.”

As of Oct. 1, Saskatchewan residents have to show they’ve been vaccinated against COVID-19 for indoor dining at restaurants; indoor fitness centres and gyms; nightclubs and bars; event venues like conference centres, casinos, movie theatres, concert venues, museums and indoor facilities hosting ticketed sporting events.

The president for the Hilltops is equally puzzled. The organization was given an answer by the province's business support team.
