Vaccination passport in supermarkets: a rather calm first day in Mauricie

Like everywhere in Quebec, Monday was the first day that customers had to present their vaccination passport for big box stores in the Mauricie region and customers seemed to adjust well to the measure. Some businesses ask customers to plan their trips to avoid long lines outside. “Currently, we have a security guard with us precisely because we have a lack of personnel so that helps us and in addition if ever there were overflows, well he would be there. But for the moment, the clientele is very cooperative,” said the director of the Canac hardware store in Trois-Rivières, Daniel Vézina. An adjustment period is required for both merchants and customers. Many had also forgotten that the measure came into force on Monday. Luckily, it starts at the beginning ...

Against the vaccination of her children: a mother dismissed by the court

A conspiratorial mother for whom vaccination is a “crime against humanity” has lost part of her parental authority over her children, so that the father will be able to have them vaccinated. “Madame can believe what she wants, the court prefers to follow the recommendations of public health”, decided judge Steve J.
