Alberta has implemented enforcing measures to stop the spread of COVID-19. Restrictions on mass gatherings, among other restrictions, help to protect Albertan's health and limit the spread of COVID-19. Click here to view a current list of active public health orders, including current restrictions and enforcement measures.
Through amendments to the Procedures Regulation under the Provincial Offences Procedures Act, community peace officers, in addition to police, will be able to issue tickets to enforce COVID-19 public health orders. Fines now administered through tickets for violating an order have increased from up to $100 per day to a prescribed fine of $1,000 per occurrence. Courts will also have increased powers to administer fines of up to $100,000 for a first offence and up to $500,000 for a subsequent offence for more serious violations.
You can submit a complaint to AHS public health inspectors if you are concerned an establishment is not following active public health orders.
