Quebec Premier François Legault announced Thursday that family gatherings with a maximum of 10 people will be allowed over the holiday season from Dec. 24 to 27. “What I am proposing is a moral contract,” he said, adding that if Quebecers want to see family they will have to limit their contacts the week before and the week after the set dates. He explained the goal is to limit the spread of the novel coronavirus, with the weeks before and after acting as a sort of quarantine. As for schools, they will close early but students will be required to take part in online learning activities from Dec. 17 to Dec. 22. Legault was joined by Education Minister Jean-François Roberge, Health Minister Christian Dubé and Dr. Horacio Arruda, director of public health to make the announcement. The second wave of the novel coronavirus pandemic led to 1,207 new cases Thursday in Quebec, bringing the total to 128,440.
