Come Friday at noon, indoor dining at restaurants will no longer be allowed. 

Though, outdoor patios will be allowed to stay open for bars and restaurants. Outdoor gatherings in groups of up to 10 are still permitted. 

Alberta reported nearly 1,000 new COVID-19 cases each day of the long weekend and Jason Kenney says this is the only way forward.
