According to a working public health document obtained by Radio-Canada, no team sports or contact sports will be allowed in red zones. Earlier this week, the Greater Montreal area, Quebec City area and Chaudière-Appalaches region were labelled as red zones and placed under new restrictions to curb the spread of COVID-19. In principle, it isn't recommended," Quebec's public health director, Dr. Horacio Arruda, said at a news conference earlier this week. On Monday, Montreal's public health director Mylène Drouin said outbreaks in sports teams have been on the rise in recent weeks. As of Thursday, there were 1,341 active cases of COVID-19 among staff and students in the province's schools.
