Voices from business and politics in the province have reacted to Tuesday’s call by Premier Alan Winde to scrap the national state of disaster, which is in place due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

He said this could include a cellphone application that could show whether citizens have been vaccinated and also record test results.

“As a business owner myself, directly affected by these lockdowns, the sudden and unpredictable shutdown of my business was more damaging than the current moderate restrictions which allow me to plan and manage how the business operates,” said Herron.“The premier cannot distance himself from a Covid 19 management system of which he has been part and parcel of from inception.

He said the people of the province are tired and exhausted because of the disaster regulations and the negative impact they have had on the psychological well being of citizens. “It is difficult to imagine one, other than to urge the powers that be to recognise that every decision to restrict economic activity to save lives may have unintended consequences for mental health, family cohesion, children's education and other negative results in society.”
