WINNIPEG – The province has adjusted what stores are allowed to sell under the latest round of COVID-19 restrictions.

Just a day after these tough new measures took effect, newspapers, pre-paid credit cards and gift cards were added to the list of essential items.

The list of communities where non-essentials can also be sold has been expanded as well to now include the remote areas of Sapotawayak, Berens River, Poplar River, Little Grand Rapids and Pauingassi.
