The owner of a pub in northwest Calgary was issued a health notice Monday, ordering him to close his business after officials found the pub had been serving customers despite public health orders to close dine-in services amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
The order, which is listed on the Alberta Health Services website, was issued for the Stonewall Pub. “Several customers were served alcohol at the bar in the dining room,” the order reads. “The continued operation of the dining room permits activity that could transmit COVID-19.” Peter Virk, the owner of the Stonewall Pub, was ordered to immediately close public access to dine-in services until public health orders are lifted.
