So an infected person with mild symptoms can mingle with everyone else, but a unvaxxed person with a negative test can’t. Geniuses.

Keep changing the rules to reward the vaccination push….

That stupid look on his face says it all....If you can't dazzle them with brilliance baffle them with bullshit!

If and when this virus mutates again it could be a lot worse, especially for the unvaccinated. When Sask Party followers start dropping like flies then maybe these idiots will put in public health measures...

Before the days of Covid how many people went to work with the sniffles and sore throat? Isn’t the symptoms of omicron?

Now you're talking

I'm not surprised. Saskatchewan govt = Alabama.

So the 10 day isolation was never really necessary?

This seems fitting…

“I mean these poor people stuck a vaccine in their body that doesn’t work so at least cut 5 days off their quarantine time”

A covid maze protocol's a mouse would go insane doing Note.... when it gets complicated you know gov is clueless

Drunk

That's a disaster waiting to happen. He could enforce rules of masks/indoor capacity/vaccine mandates to curb the spread but he's doing the 'anything but that' plan. I get the feeling that Moe has no idea how to govern in a crisis. Shocker

Another idiot move by PremierScottMoe! That's right, cut down on quarantine period without any peer-reviewed double-blind randomized controlled trials!!!

Provinces seem following US CDC guidelines instead Ottawa. GREAT.

First Ford then Kenny and now Moe . Anyone see a trend here Republics of the north.

America. 🤣

What next, 5 hours ?

Also: Don't use alcohol to solve your problems, but rather because it's fun...

'You're just as contagious as anyone else, but you can work, so get out there! Don't worry, it's not my grandma.' - PremierScottMoe

Clearly following the CDCgov recent move that is being criticized by drs worldwide.

Still pushing the divide! There is no difference between the vaccinated & unvaccinated with the OmicronVarient

If everyone jumped into Lake Ontario would you do it, too?

Where did this knucklehead come from? The people of Saskatchewan gave him and his party a mandate to lead…he’s done a bang up job of leader incompetence.

From a government that admitted screwing up their response to the 4th wave comes this... this idiocy.

Did they not see where this got the US?

Incentives to cover for two years of lies .

Well at least Scott Moe doesn't pretend to give a shit about the health and well-being of Saskatchewanians

Oh Scott...hope is not a strategy.

Idiot

So.. we're following the US's capitalistic lead, now eh?
