COVID-19 Update

Québec reported fewer than 800 cases of COVID-19 Monday, the fewest new cases since March.

It’s a significant drop from recent days, after Quebec reported around a thousand cases a day over the last week.

The same day, healthcare workers administered 38 thousand doses, as the province nears 40 per cent inoculation.

Tent City Dismantled

Montreal police dismantled a tent city where several homeless people were living on Monday.

The people who had set up in an east-end park were forced out by an order from Quebec’s transport ministry.

About 20 people were pushed out of the encampment. 

Police say there were no arrests.
