While the Saskatchewan government unveiled its plans to send some people back to work next month, the provincial opposition said current limits on childcare facilities could affect the amount of workers able to resume their jobs amid the coronavirus pandemic. “What is the plan to make sure that nobody’s in a situation where they’re unable to go to work for childcare reasons or where they might lose their job or face other penalties?
Because they have to say no, they have to stay home with their kids,” said Saskatchewan NDP leader Ryan Meili. The provincial state of emergency limits childcare facilities to eight children per room within the facility.
