Live-Streaming Services Clarified by Health Minister
This week all non-essential businesses in Manitoba were closed. In an interview with CHVN, health minister Cameron Friesen clarified that "Provided that in the church those who are organizing and facilitating the service are numbered 10 or less and are observing social distancing requirements, then churches can continue to stream from their building."
