Yellowknife Mayor Rebecca Alty wants to make it crystal clear: DonSA国际影视传媒檛 call us, weSA国际影视传媒檒l call you.

She detailed the City of YellowknifeSA国际影视传媒檚 thought process in a social media post at 11:34 a.m.

SA国际影视传媒淚SA国际影视传媒檝e had lots of questions about how to get on the list to be considered a critical service/business. The short answer: the city or GNWT will contact you; no need to contact us,SA国际影视传媒 she wrote. SA国际影视传媒淚n Phase 3, the city is calling back businesses that are critical for the first few days that residents are back. People will need to go to the grocery store so they can eat; some daycares will need to be open so people working at the grocery store, hospital, etc. can go to work; etc.

SA国际影视传媒淐ity staff are calling businesses who are deemed critical to be open for the public on the first few days home. We have the categories of businesses and we have the list of Yellowknife businesses who fit in those categories, and weSA国际影视传媒檙e calling them. No need to call or email to ask to be added.SA国际影视传媒

She did not include a list of what is being deemed a critical business.

In addition to the City of Yellowknife shortlisting businesses to return during Phase 3, Alty noted the GNWT would also be contacting businesses needed to provide services for staff at Stanton Territorial Hospital and the Yellowknife Airport.

Alty added that because of the limited healthcare and other essential services, the municipality is trying to keep its list as short as possible.

SA国际影视传媒淚f you donSA国际影视传媒檛 get a call during Phase 3, it doesnSA国际影视传媒檛 mean youSA国际影视传媒檙e not important,SA国际影视传媒 she wrote. SA国际影视传媒淲e need pet stores, restaurants, clothing stores and more to have a great and lively city. We just donSA国际影视传媒檛 need all of our stores open on the first day that people return.

SA国际影视传媒淎lthough Phase 3 remains paused during this time, we continue to work with the businesses to get the names of their staff and whether theySA国际影视传媒檒l be driving or flying (when the time comes). We continue to do this work so when Phase 3 resumes, weSA国际影视传媒檒l be ready to jump into action quickly.SA国际影视传媒
