No Frills and the Real Canadian Superstore will soon join the list of businesses requiring customers to wear a mask or other face covering due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The two businesses, which are part of the Loblaws Companies, made the announcement Saturday morning on their respective Facebook pages. The move affects all No Frills and Superstore locations in Canada, including Clifton's No Frills in Estevan.
The policy takes effect on Aug. 29.
鈥淲e appreciate your support as we work together to stop the spread of COVID-19,鈥 the post said.
Other businesses in Canada have been requiring mandatory mask usage in recent weeks. Some customers have criticized the mandatory use of masks, but others have thanked the companies for introducing such a policy.
