Manitoba RCMP say they have yet to hand out a ticket for anyone violating the province’s public health orders around the novel coronavirus.
Police said Wednesday they received 64 calls related to COVID-19 provincewide between April 8 and 13, with the majority of those calls reporting groups of 10 people or more.
Those who gather in public with more than 10 people, don’t close their non-essential business or don’t enforce physical distancing in businesses are in contravention of the Public Health Act.
Last week Manitoba health officials announced those who flout the Public Health Act could face fines of up to $486 for individuals and $2,542 for businesses.
