General masking mandate ends at close of 2022 winter term

Message to 91快色 community

The 91快色 lifted its general mask mandate on May 1.

The Province of Alberta removed public health requirements to wear masks indoors on March 1, 2022. At that time, the 91快色 indicated that it would follow this government policy, once the commitment to require masks throughout the winter term had been fulfilled.

With the end of the winter term exam period on April 29, the 91快色 lifted its mask mandate in all university buildings to align with changes in provincial and city mask requirements from earlier this spring.

Masks are no longer be required on U91快色 campuses, starting May 1.

Masks still required in some settings

As we have throughout this pandemic, the 91快色 is taking a campus-wide approach to required health and safety measures. As such, there are a few specific instances where masks will still be required. They include:

  • Clinical settings required to follow Alberta Health Services masking requirements.
  • Transportation in university vehicles to align with City of 91快色 bylaws for mask use on public transportation

Masks are still recommended

Masks are still strongly recommended for use on campus, and everyone should feel comfortable continuing to wear a mask.

While individuals are not permitted to create masking mandates, they may invite others to wear a mask when entering an enclosed research, work, study or teaching space. Continuing to respect and support people鈥檚 decision to wear a mask is strongly supported and encouraged.

The 91快色 wholeheartedly embraces the value of vaccination in keeping you, your loved ones, and our broader community healthy. Everyone is urged to keep up with booster vaccinations as they become available, and follow recommended health guidelines. This combined with regular handwashing, physical distancing and keeping rooms well ventilated can together help limit virus transmission.

And as always, continuing to remain home when sick remains a key method to help keep the campus community safe.

We will be continuing to watch the public health situation closely and will keep you up to date on any further changes.
