Manitoba's Premier and his counterpart to the south are teaming up to make an announcement regarding their Essential Worker Cross-Border Vaccination Initiative.
Premier Brian Pallister joined by North Dakota's Governor Doug Burgum Tuesday, is calling their announcement a "small victory."
Manitoba-based truck drivers can be vaccinated, starting tomorrow, by North Dakota.
"We are building hope together," Pallister says. "It is a good news story."
Pallister is hoping 2,000 to 4,000 people will be vaccinated in this partnership.
These vaccines will be free at the Alexander Henry Rest Area, open from noon to 8 p.m. between Wednesday to Friday for those 16-years-old or older. Pfizer and Moderna vaccines will be used.
