Premier Francois Legault said last week that elementary schools, daycares and retail stores with outdoor entrances in Montreal can reopen on May 25, pushing back the date for a second time

Schools and daycares outside the Montreal area will open as scheduled on Monday, with attendance optional and physical distancing measures in place.

Many of the outbreaks have occurred in long-term care homes, including a single home in Laval that counts over 200 cases and 84 deaths as of Sunday. Another outbreak is forcing the shutdown of a meat-processing plant near Montreal after 64 employees tested positive. The owners of the Cargill plant in Chambly, Que., announced they would close temporarily as of Wednesday so all its workers can be tested.

Cargill said the 64 workers represent 13 per cent of the work force at the plant. The company said three employees have recovered, and more were expected to be ready to return to work once operations resume.

Old news, is the economy open yet so I can go shopping and book my summer holiday?

Perhaps it is a mutated form of the virus? We need to pray. There are signs of what we students of the bible would call, 'the simmering wrath of God.' This is nothing compared to when it boils over. Repent and turn from sin, and into the Grace of Christ. desiringGod davidpawson

What I don’t get is that the Quebec premiers approval rating is still one of the highest in the country.
