The Laurentians at Orange and Red Levels
Communiqué de presse Pour publication immédiate Progressive regional alert and intervention system (COVID-19) The Laurentians at Orange and Red Levels Saint-Jérôme, September 29, 2020 – As of Thursday, October 1, and for the next 28 days, the Rivière-du- Nord, Thérèse-De Blainville and Deux-Montagnes MRCs and the Town of Mirabel will be considered Red Zones for the purpose of fighting and monitoring COVID-19. Meanwhile, the status of the Argenteuil, Pays- d’en-Haut, Laurentides and Antoine-Labelle MRCs will change to Alert Level Orange. The CISSS des Laurentides wants the public to understand what that means and the measures that will be put in place to slow the spread of the virus. As they are part of the Montreal Metropolitan Community (MMC), the Thérèse-De Blainville and Deux- Montagnes MRCs and the Town of Mirabel are now Red Zones, following to the Public Health Department’s finding that the virus is spreading at an accelerated rate in those sectors. The same goes for the Rivière-du- Nord MRC, where COVID-19 is spreading at a similar rate. As for the other MRCs of the Laurentian region (those of Argenteuil, Pays-d’en-Haut, Laurentides and Antoine-Labelle), their Alert Level is upgraded to Orange, as the virus is circulating more and more actively in those sectors. Red Alert (Rivière-du-Nord, Thérèse-De Blainville, Deux-Montagnes MRCs, and the Town of Mirabel) Level 4 – Maximum Alert (Red) institutes additional restrictive and targeted measures, that could extend to prohibiting non-essential activities where the risk cannot be sufficiently contained, while avoiding as much as possible a general lock-down like the one imposed during the first wave of the pandemic.

Laval/Laurentides/Lanaudière/Abitibi-Témiscamingue) June 18, 2015 to February 2017
Report of the President of the 3L Area Council – Region 2 (Laval/Laurentides/Lanaudière/Abitibi-Témiscamingue) June 18, 2015 to February 2017 My term began in the thick of the campaign of activities on the 19th of every month, with a rally on June 19 with CEIU Local 10426 in Laval. I helped to organize the “Harperman” video and would like to express a big thank you to all who joined in. The fall of 2015 was a very busy time, with the mobilization activities on the 19th of every month and the courses I took to fully understand my role as President of the Area Council and to complete the PSAC Union Development Program, an intensive education program designed to develop the leadership skills of emerging union activists over ten months, which began in February 2015. I also attended my first meeting of the Quebec Council and my first meeting of the FTQ substance abuse and dependencies committee. In addition, I took several occupational health and safety courses. After becoming President of the Area Council, I resigned from my position as Women’s Coordinator. I was fortunate enough to attend the first FTQ “women’s school” organized by the occupational health and safety group, a wonderful and eye-opening course on traditional and non-traditional workplaces for women. I also took part in the World March of Women in Trois-Rivières. November 19, 2015: Annual meeting of the 3L Area Council, and election. I was re- elected by acclamation as President, Eric Villeneuve was re-elected by acclamation as Vice-President and Manon Lamoureux was re-elected as Treasurer.

QIP investments have reached a historic high, i.e. $130.5 billion over the next 10 years, up $15.1 billion from the last fiscal year. This means a total increase of over $30.1 billion that our Government is dedicating to the QIP for two years, an unprecedented but essential initiative to keep the infrastructure portfolio in good condition and support its growth based on emerging needs. Four priorities have been put forward in the development of the 2020-2030 QIP: education, with an additional $5.9 billion, mainly to expand and build primary and secondary schools; public transit, with an additional $3.3 billion and several new projects under study; health, which will benefit from an additional $2.9 billion, in part to build seniors' residences; and culture, with the deployment of the cultural itinerary of various cultural infrastructure in different regions of Québec.

Phase 1 of the Survey
PSYCHOSOCIAL IMPACTS OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC: RESULTS OF A BROAD INVESTIGATION IN QUÉBEC Author and lead researcher: Mélissa Généreux1,2,3 Co-researchers: Marc D. David,3 Marie-Ève Carignan,3 Olivier Champagne-Poirier,3 Gabriel Blouin-Genest,3 Mathieu Roy2-3 Affiliations: 1) Direction de santé publique de l’Estrie 2) Institut national de santé publique du Québec 3) Université de Sherbrooke BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVESTIGATION Context: This is a two-year project financed by the CIHR ($500,000) and carried out by an interdisciplinary team from the Université de Sherbrooke and other national and international partners. The Québec investigation is a supplement to this project, which is funded by the seven regional public health departments. Why: Like other types of catastrophes, the pandemic is likely to trigger serious consequences in the population in the short, medium and long terms. It is important to fully grasp the nature, scope and distribution of the psychosocial impacts of the pandemic and the related risk and protection factors, to support decision making and public health interventions. Who: Representative sample of 6,261 adults living in one of the seven participating social-health regions of Québec (Mauricie–Centre-du-Québec, Estrie, Montréal, Laval, Lanaudière, Laurentides, Montérégie), with a recruitment goal of 750 to 1,000 adults per region. These regions, all located in central and southern Québec, comprise just over 70% of the entire population of Québec. For information purposes, for a random sample of 6,261 participants, the margin of error is 1.24% within a confidence interval of 95% (19 times out of 20).

This policy is meant to be an effective tool in promoting the conditions to enable Québec’s young people to exercise full and complete citizenship. No community can prosper as a vibrant and just society without the participation of its young people. This is why we are providing them with the means to influence our future and build our nation. Energetic and inventive, young people are a source of inspiration for all of us. The challenges they are called to face are many; just think about globalization, endless technological advances, demographic trends and major social changes. These transformations require concerted efforts and creativity. Like all citizens of Québec, young people must play their part in developing our society and making it thrive. They deserve our support! Together, we can foster a culture of generational renewal and a sense of belonging. We can also coordinate the initiatives of all partners to ensure coherent action in youth-related matters.

La Belle Province for Second Home Owners the Province of Quebec Is
La Belle Province for Second Home Owners The Province of Quebec is home to varied and stunning landscapes, as well as a vibrant and cosmopolitan metropolis, Montreal. Predominantly French speaking, Quebec is renowned for its unique culture and character. Europe is expensive, and trans-Atlantic plane travel fraught with hassles. La belle province, on the other hand, is an affordable foreign destination that is close to home. Quebec’s 7.5 million residents partake of a lifestyle that is at once North American and Continental, with the odd British element thrown in the mix. French missionaries explored and settled Quebec in the 16th and 17th Centuries and with the advent of the fur trade, the rugged religious colony took on commercial importance. The British captured Quebec in 1760, and the Canadian territory then fell under British rule. Even as Canada was part of Britain, Quebec retained its French language and heritage, and to this day embodies a distinct society in North America. It’s important to note, however, that Quebec is no longer “New France.” The spoken French is different than that of France, and Québécois culture is divergent as well. Country Places Among Montreal second home owners, the nearby Laurentian and Eastern Townships regions are popular. The Townships offers mountains, lakes, open spaces, rolling hills and agricultural land. It’s an area rich in history, and has an easygoing pace. The Laurentians region is world famous for its combination of mountains and lakes, and is popular with skiers and winter sports enthusiasts. Both areas are within easy driving distance of Montreal, and are ideal getaway spots.
