Marc Caron is taking issue with a media release issued by the Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA).
The SHA advisory was aimed at anyone who attended outdoor events, poker rallies or poker card parties or had gatherings outside their household bubble since Christmas.
Caron, the village’s mayor, says the media release reflects negatively on St. Louis.
“We’re worried about some of the wording of the possible events that led to this exposure … which are totally false,” Caron said Thursday.
“We are concerned about COVID in the community, but we’re also concerned about how (SHA officials) are making it sound like the village endorsed all these activities.”
SASKATOON The Saskatchewan Health Authority on Wednesday announced an increased COVID-19 exposure risk in the St. Louis area. The warning was due to cases linked to events in the community and subsequent spread to household members and other close contacts. The increased risk is for anyone who may have attended any outdoor recreational events, suppers, poker rallies, or poker card parties outside their family bubble since Christmas. Mayor Marc Caron is concerned but says he and other council members are not aware of events or family gatherings. “We are following all the provincial guidelines. I just don’t want St. Louis painted in a negative light.”
