COVID-19 cases in the province decline.At the end of April, as cases began to climb in Nova Scotia, the NSLC said its new hours of operation would be from 10 a.m.
to 6 p.m. and stores would be closed on Sundays.NSLC spokesperson Bev Ware said that change was because there were a number of potential exposures to COVID-19 at their stores.“Because of our strict protocols, employees from other stores were moved around to help relieve pressure on employees in those stores, so it had a ripple effect,” she said in an email Thursday.“With the reduced exposures we are now able to staff all stores and extend our hours.”Starting Thursday, most stores will now be open from 10 a.m.
