MONTREAL - Quebec authorities say masks that have been distributed to daycares across the province since May don t meet provincial safety standards.
The Families Department issued a notice Tuesday calling on daycares to stop using the MC9501 masks because they don t meet one of three requirements established by the Robert-Sauve research institute.
