Lindbrook shopkeeper warned by RCMP and AHS inspector

Two Tofield RCMP officers and an Alberta Health Services (AHS) inspector visited the Lindbrook store and gas station on Thursday, Jan. 7 in an attempt to enforce the Town of Tofield and provincial mask by-law.

Shopkeeper Hemla wasn’t present at the time of their visit, but her sons Logan and Phillip were, along with an employee.

“Both my sons as well as one of my employees were present when the policy enforcers came in on Thursday,” Hemla explained. “My sons told them that they were ‘sovereign people’ to protect their rights, and felt subjected to a power trip from the AHS inspector Dave Fong!”

Hemla added that they were “paid a visit” by policy enforcers because AHS had received more than 10 complaints stating that the employees and the shop weren’t following the mask by-law. . . . contd.
