Alberta to move into Stage 2 of relaunch Friday
Alberta’s Stage 2 relaunch will begin this week.
Premier Jason Kenney announced the relaunch date has been moved up one week to June 12.
“The last three tough months have left us bruised and grieving, particularly for the loss of 149 of our fellow Albertans,” he said. “But though we were bent, we have not been broken.”
Kenney said Albertans should be very proud of their response to the COVID-19 pandemic. He noted Albertans’ lives were not as severely curtailed as elsewhere and the province was able to lift restrictions sooner than most other jurisdictions.
