Saskatchewan Hotel and Hospitality Association (SHHA) says funding from the province will help the tourism industry, hard hit by the coronavirus pandemic.The Saskatchewan government announced $35 million on Monday to support the sector.
Popular tourist attractions reopen in Regina “With severe reductions in revenues, organizations will be under extreme pressure to find ways to manage their fixed costs and expenses in 2020,” said Jim Pence, president and CEO of the SHHA.“We are very pleased with this significant investment in our industry by the government and we much appreciate their continued support and willingness to collaborate with us during this crisis.”The government estimates the tourism industry stands to lose at least $730.
