Quebec premier says announcement about vaccine passport could come Tuesday – CBC

François Legault says he plans to scrap measure as soon as public health OKs move

Feb 15, 2022

Quebec Premier François Legault said he would meet with public health officials Monday night to discuss whether the province’s vaccine passport system should remain in use.

Speaking to reporters in Longueuil, Legault said Health Minister Christian Dubé plans to “get rid of the pass as soon as we get the OK from public health.”

He said an announcement on the future of the vaccine passport could come as early as Tuesday.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford announced Monday the vaccine passport system in his province will be lifted on March 1. Alberta and Saskatchewan have already ended proof-of-vaccination requirements, while the Manitoba government also plans to lift its vaccine passport requirement in March.

Legault said he still needs approval from public health officials.
