Last week, Premier François Legault said the situation in Quebec “continues to improve” and says the government is “exactly where we thought” in terms of the COVID-19 vaccine rollout and reopening plan.
As case numbers continue to decline, Legault said the government has “reached its objective” and specifically pointed out that people can move from having “little parties to big ones.”
“We can go from little parties to big ones,” said Legault in French. “We’ve reached our objectives.”
He also said that fully vaccinated people could be maskless in public spaces by the end of August.
