WINNIPEG – Starting today, face masks are mandatory at James Armstrong Richardson International Airport.

They must be worn at all times throughout the airport.

This comes as some local businesses are also requiring masks to worn.

And while masks won’t be mandatory when transit resumes full summer service on Sunday, masks are being recommended by health officials, the city and Mayor Brian Bowman.
