Great-West Life has closed all of its Winnipeg offices due to a threat they received just before midnight on Tuesday, December 4, 2018.
The company alerted police and a search of the five buildings in the city turned up nothing. Great-West has offices at 60, 80 and 100 Osborne Street, across from the Manitoba Legislature as well as at 444 St. Mary and 560 Broadway.
More than 5,000 employees were told to stay home Wednesday.
A second sweep of the buildings will be performed by members of the K-9 unit.
