@SkProMasker @AdithyaR_YXE @OfficialRPL There are eight other libraries that do not have the same safety issues that Central is forced to deal with. People can use any of those branches.

@SkProMasker @AdithyaR_YXE @OfficialRPL I think anyone who is a regular user of Central is unsurprised by this action. I agree that RPL could and should be much better communicators, recognizing that library staff deserve to be safe should be something community members recognize for themselves.

@AdithyaR_YXE @SkProMasker @OfficialRPL How is asking people at one of nine locations to briefly reveal their face is discriminatory? No services are being denied. Staff still bring Holds to the door for library customers at all branches if they don’t want to enter.

[Mary Lou (she/her) @marylou2ca]

@AdithyaR_YXE @SkProMasker @OfficialRPL Not being able to identify people is a safety risk. Hundreds of people use Central Branch daily. Many of them have behaved violently in the past—staff are regularly physically and verbally abused at Central. Staff are morally and legally entitled to a safe workplace.

@SkProMasker @OfficialRPL There are nine libraries in Regina—only one is requiring that masks be briefly removed for identification purposes. Two weeks ago there was a machete attack at Central—a staff person was less than a metre away. Staff safety is a reasonable and necessary priority for the library.

@SkProMasker @OfficialRPL As a former library employee it is increasing difficult and stressful and frightening dealing with customers in angry threatening situations when they can not be identified because they are wearing a mask.

@awcomix This spells the coming end of Netflix for us. We often travel for one than seven days.

[Mary Lou (she/her) @marylou2ca]

@awcomix Damnation!

[Mary Lou (she/her) @marylou2ca]

@SkProMasker You should direct them to MaskC. Very nice masks.

[Mary Lou (she/her) @marylou2ca]

@SkProMasker Yes

[Mary Lou (she/her) @marylou2ca]

@SkProMasker We have received 1/3.

[Mary Lou (she/her) @marylou2ca]

@Leah_M_Howie Thanks for the tip! These are lovely masks but so expensive at full price. I was delighted to stock up with such a great sale.

JoAnn Wilson was brutally murdered by Colin Thatcher mere footsteps from the ceremony he attended today.

Women in this province live in fear daily of men like Colin Thatcher.

The SaskParty showed Thatcher off like a trophy, that trophy shows you who they really are. #honk

@SkProMasker @jtquilliam RPS has posted that the Rider game is a priority for them during this alert.

@SkProMasker @CTSSask @reginapolice It’s all over FB.
