The balance sheet of the last 24 hours reported fewer than 200 new cases of infection to the COVID-19. Since Sunday, the province is also concerned less than 10 deaths per day.

“It is very encouraging,” he said.

Racism

Addressing the large protests Sunday in Montreal and elsewhere in Quebec, the premier has once again promised a “policy against racism”.

“There is racism in Quebec”, he said, adding, however, that he wants to avoid the “trial of all Quebecers”.

But he expects to seek pragmatic solutions in a number of sectors against “this evil that eats away at our society.”

“I made the choice not to ban these events. I understand very well that Quebecers have the taste to express, that they have a ras-le-bol”, he explained.

More details to come..
