Dubbed the COVID-19 vaccination passport, digital or paper documentation will be required to take part in much of public life, from having a beer to playing badminton. Quebec Health Minister Christian Dubé said the goal behind the province's vaccine passport system is avoiding another round of COVID-19-related closures and restrictions. Dubé had warned in recent months that a vaccine passport system in the province was likely this fall.

He said it will be worth watching exactly how the passport system will be enforced in the weeks and months to come.
