No health mandates this fall
Notice that CTV, reporting on Tuesday’s official state of play from Quebec on Covid, headlines it that there will be no obligatory public health measures this fall, since they assume most people are more concerned about not having to wear a mask than, say, not getting sick.

I firmly believe that if the polio outbreak gets worse, we’re going to see people openly mocking the paralyzed.

I would very much like there to be clear messaging about what might happen in the next few months and more encouragement of the “recommended” measures. That said,
1) the headline and article say there are no “plans” to introduce obligatory health measures, not that there absolutely will not be any.
2) The poll Kevin cites actually has healthcare as the #1 priority, even if COVID specifically is last. I don’t see that as evidence that people don’t care. It just shows that there’s a lot going on right now.
