REGINA—Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe says his province is on its way out of the COVID-19 pandemic as his government lifted a ban on household visits and told places of worship that they can hold larger services, just in time for Easter.

Starting Tuesday, Saskatchewan residents can have up to 10 people inside their homes, though the province’s top doctor said they should be from the same two or three households.
