GNWT Launches Unified COVID-19 Response Website
YELLOWKNIFE (MAY 9, 2020) – The Government of the Northwest Territories recognizes how important it is for residents to be able to access information about COVID-19 in a single location, and has made some changes to address that need.
Information is power in the collective response to COVID-19 in the Northwest Territories – and now, it’s a whole lot easier to find. That’s because the Government of the Northwest Territories (GNWT) has launched a new, standalone, cross-government website bringing all the information and resources about the territory’s pandemic response under one roof.
The site new site – www.gov.nt.ca/covid-19 -- is your home for reliable, accurate information about how to keep yourself safe, the rules for keeping others safe, and changes to how our government delivers services in this unprecedented time.
