Dr. Brent Roussin acknowledges that Manitobans are anxious to begin the re-opening process, but stresses that it will take time.
“We’re going to look at ways to open certain non-essential businesses, while others will remain closed. However, this will not be a return to normal. There will be a new normal for the foreseeable future. We’ll need to continue our social distancing efforts although we will be able to ease some of those restrictions.”
