The Quebec government announced this afternoon that it is expanding its list of essential services this month to include landscaping, nurseries, garden centres, garages, automobile mechanics and housing construction projects.
Housing construction will start back on April 20th; Premier Legault said that he does not want Quebec to experience a housing crisis at the same time as having to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic. Construction resuming will also allow for apartment building projects to be completed and ready for potential tenants as of July 31st 2020.
The remainder of the services will start to resume Wednesday, April 15th.
