The Quebec government is putting off reopening schools in the Montreal area until August or September.
Premier Francois Legault says public health conditions for reopening haven't been met in Montreal, which is the COVID-19 epicentre of the province.
The Montreal area had initially been slated to reopen schools, daycares and businesses on May 25, but now daycare in the region will only reopen June 1 at the earliest while no firm decision has been taken on retail businesses.
Authorities reported an additional 793 new cases of COVID-19 and 131 new deaths today.
