Masks are mandatory in Winnipeg's Law Courts complex starting Tuesday after an employee tested positive for COVID-19 on Monday. If there is any risk to the public, additional information will be provided, a provincial spokesperson said. Clerks who work at public desks will have to wear a mask unless they're working behind plexiglass. "I absolutely think masks are an appropriate step to be taken," she said in an interview on Monday night. Last month, the three levels of courts announced masks must be worn in court facilities in the Prairie Mountain Health region.
