@WG894 Edmonton’s mask mandate takes effect today. The provincial one starts tomorrow.

[Fletcher Kent @FletcherKent]

Province is introducing a new vaccination incentive program. It’s offering $100 to anyone over 18 who gets a first or second dose between now and Oct 14. #ableg

Alcohol service will end at 10 in bars and restaurants, the province is asking people to limit contacts and for employers to rethink any back to work plans.

That’s all the swearing ins. By my estimation Leela Aheer is the only cabinet minister out and Grant Hunter is the only Associate Minister removed. Of note, Aheer recently called on Kenney to apologize for the skypalace dinner. #ableg

[Fletcher Kent @FletcherKent]

Tanya Fir is back in cabinet as associate minister of red tape reduction. That used to be Grant Hunter’s job. #ableg

And Whitney Issik becomes the associate minister of status of women. #ableg

Nate Horner becomes the Associate Minister of Rural Economic Development. #ableg

Ron Orr is the new culture minister. Leela Aheer was the old one. She’s not here for a new portfolio. #ableg

[Fletcher Kent @FletcherKent]

Jason Luan takes over for Sawhney as minister of Community and Social services. #ableg

[Fletcher Kent @FletcherKent]

Rajan Sawhney is the new transportation minister. She leaves community and social services. #ableg

I’m at Government House for a cabinet shuffle. Details are coming at about 10am. Based on the number of chairs, it looks like we’ll see 8 changes. #ableg
