A Canadian grocery chain is joining a growing number of businesses mandating mask-use in its stores.

Beginning Aug. 29, a mask or face covering will be required to shop at Real Canadian Superstore locations. The mandate was announced on the chain’s Facebook page Aug. 22.

“We appreciate your support as we work together to stop the spread of COVID-19,” Real Canadian Superstore said in the post.

On Aug. 12, Walmart made masks mandatory for shopping in its Canadian stores.
