Quebec to ease restrictions on dancing, karaoke, telework and more as of Nov. 15
CTV
Much to the relief of bar and nightclub owners, dancing and karaoke will be allowed in private venues as of Nov. 15 as long as people wear masks, Quebec announced Tuesday.
Dancing in bars had been banned since March 2020.
Quebec Health Minister Christian Dubé made the announcement during a news conference in which other health measures are being announced. The vaccine passport will remain mandatory. “It will be finally possible to dance and customers will no longer have to remain seated at their table,” said Dubé.
Karaoke singers will, however, have to follow one of the new rules: maintain a distance of at least two metres from the crowd, remain behind a physical barrier, or wear a mask.
Bars and restaurants will also no longer be required to maintain a register of clients for contact tracing purposes. Wearing a face cover remains mandatory in all other situations in restaurants and bars, except when eating or drinking.
