Vaccination: second dose available for Moderna and AstraZeneca

Quebecers vaccinated with Moderna or AstraZeneca products can start making an appointment for their second dose, depending on their age category. Thus, those aged 50 and over can go to Clic Santé as of today to plan their second vaccine, as was already the case for people vaccinated with pfizer's product. Eligible groups decline by five years each day, until they reach the age of 18 on June 23.  Quebec will receive 1.6 million doses from the manufacturer Moderna this week, 500,000 more than expected over the next two weeks.  Plus de 1M de 2e doses ont été administrées au Québec. La 2e campagne de vaccination est réellement en marche. La 2e dose est cruciale pour être adéquatement protégé contre le virus.

Bloc re-introduces motion on Quebec rights

  PHOTO SEAN KILPATRICK, LA PRESSE CANADIENNE Bloc Québécois leader Yves-François Blanchet. (Ottawa) By imposing a debate in the House of Commons on Quebec City's Bill 96, the Bloc Québécois said it wanted to "unmask" federal elected officials who only supported the Legault government's initiative as a façade. In the second speech in the House by a Liberal elected official, the bloc's wish was granted. Montreal Liberal MP Anthony Housefather expressed concern about the "limited and symbolic" scope of the motion that will be put to the vote on Wednesday, tried to amend it, unsuccessfully, before finding a few hours later that his Liberal colleagues in cabinet would not follow him. "That this House agree that section 45 of the Constitution Act, 1982 confers on Quebec and the provinces exclusive jurisdiction to amend their respective constitutions; and take note of Quebec's desire to enshrine in its constitution that Quebecers form a nation, that F...
