Under the current state of emergency, family gatherings or religious ceremonies are not allowed in New Brunswick this Easter weekend
Premier Blaine Higgs says it’s important to follow the rules from Public Health under the pandemic such as physical distancing and staying home.
“This weekend I won’t be having Easter dinner and visiting my mother. It is why I won’t be enjoying an Easter egg hunt with my grandchildren — and I won’t be the only one making these sacrifices,” says Higgs.
He says most residents are following the rules but those that don’t could face fines.
Higgs adds law enforcement officials will be out and about over the next few days to ensure everyone stays safe.
