Traffic control measures are underway in Terrebonne, a city located north of Montreal, in an effort to stop the spread of the novel coronavirus.
Mayor Marc-André Plante said only residents from Les Moulins and L’Assomption regional municipal counties will be permitted to shop at supermarkets and big-box stores in the area.
The Terrebonne, Sainte-Anne-des-Plaines and Bois-des-Filion police forces will be working together to enforce the new rules, he added. “We are asking all citizens to collaborate calmly and to follow the directives issued by authorities,” said Plante in a video posted to the city’s social media pages.
