84 tickets for non-compliance in Montreal on first night of Quebec curfew

Montreal police handed out 84 tickets on Saturday night, the first night of the Quebec curfew, which through Feb. 8. Only essential workers are technically allowed out between 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. — see the list of exemptions (and what you need to show police) here. The SPVM noted that 17 of the 84 fines (which range from $1,000 to $6,000) were handed out at an anti-curfew protest in Montreal, and that officers are intervening to assist the homeless.

Il y a également eu plusieurs interventions pour assister des personnes en situation d’itinérance (aucun constat). Dorénavant, les données seront ajoutées au bilan #Covid19 que nous diffusons chaque semaine. (2/2)
