MONTREAL As Quebec shatters records for COVID-19 cases, those who plan to hold rallies, parties or other gatherings are being warned: the police will be more numerous than usual during the holidays and some promise to be not very tolerant. There will be additional personnel who will be deployed in the field in order to respond to calls for a health decree, and we also have the necessary agility to adjust our workforce to needs, said Quebec City police (SPVQ) spokesperson David Pelletier. Police officers who find violations will have a zero-tolerance attitude with regard to citizen gatherings, said Pelletier.
