EDMONTON – Alberta has introduced legislation to extend existing emergency health and labour rules tied to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Health Minister Tyler Shandro says as case numbers fluctuate and new research emerges, long-term rules need to be in place once emergency ministerial orders lapse in August.
Shandro’s proposed legislation could extend existing orders, but with sunset clauses that could be in force as late as the end of next year.
The bill proposes changes to 15 acts across seven ministries.
