Demonstrators in Regina within view of the Legislature Building are calling for an end to public health mandates while a smaller group of counter-protesters are asking the government to maintain current measures.

At about 2 p.m., there were hundreds of demonstrators asking for an end to mandates while a smaller group countered their calls. So far, the conflicting protests appear to be peaceful.Convoys against COVID-19 mandates, health measures plan to protest at Sask. Legislative Building Saturday

Protesters on the edge of Albert Street, where a line of concrete barricades has cut off access to the Legislature Building, bear signs with anti-vaccine and anti-masking sentiments.Kristen Dube, an anti-mandate protester who drove to the event from Saskatoon, says she is vaccinated and her partner is not.

Organizers of that event say the premier is doing away with mandates to "please anti-vax extremists." They say the vaccine passport has to be kept so that businesses can keep both customers and staff safe. "We need leaders who will not let our medical system burn down around us by letting critical-care doctors and nurses burn out at record speed."Pro-mandate organizers are calling for the premier and his ministers to resign if they do not maintain COVID-19 mandates and restrictions in the province.

Police are on hand to maintain order among the people gathered outside the Legislature Building on Saturday.

I think the freedom movement wins...the other group is sadly misinformed.

We've arranged a society based on science and technology, in which nobody understands anything about science technology. And this combustible mixture of ignorance and power, sooner or later, is going to blow up in our faces. Carl Sagan
